APPENDIX
This appendix provides backgiound information about existing astronomi-
t"åiiiti", *ä th"it costs. This material has been used by the Panel

in
of tle report. It includes:
Major radio telescopes, world-wide, 30 feet or over in size'

Tables ,{ and B are compiled largeþ from the Ameúcøn Ephematís ønd
Nøutícal Almønc,listings àaintained by the National Science Founda-
tÌon, a catalog compiled by B' H. Rule (a panel member), and Telnscopes'
by C.Þ. fuiper, University of Chicago P¡ess, -1960' The remaining
"dited háve been cãmpiled largãIy ftom data suppliecl by the National
iabtes
Science For:ndatioo unã d"tu compilecl by B. H. Rule through private com-
munications. Wherever costs are given, the actual cost of an instmment
has been correcteil to repl'esent the cost to produce the instrument in 1963'
using correction factors proviiled by appraisalJistings services for typical
equipment in the United States.

Tables ,{ and B give a gooil picture of the extent of astronomical facil-
ities at present. From this, a picture can be obtained of the status, relative
to the ùo¡lil-wide pictüe, of ,{merican astronomical facilities' The extent
of feileral anil stateìupport can be ascertained from Tables C and D' Tables
E and F provide thelìsis for unilerstanding of tle costs of astuonomical
instrumenis of all signiffcant sizes.
In Tables E attã F, every efiort has been macle to give an accurate anil
homogeneous set of costs. This is sometimes diftculg since quoted costs
in any given case may ol may not include such items as operational sup-
port, feãsibiìity stuiliés, site surveys, Iand procurement and development,
ãuxiliary buildings such as residences and laboratories, anal instrumentation
onom'1-
: fo, lrr" iith tlie ielescope, such as radio receivers, spectrographs, anil other
Panel
auxiìiary equipment. The costs of such items have been eliminated wherever
he text
any of them may be necessary in a given project' Thus
possibÉ
'thur" "Itho"gh inaccuracíes in tlese tables; however, it is felt that any
-"y b" soãe
such inaccuracies do not distort the general price picture' The costs shown
¡ize,
here are in agreement with ttrose listed in other stuclies'
:ater in
The datã from Tables E and F have been useil to produce Figures 21
and 22, pages 78 and 79. The curves in these ffgures indicate that the
.cost of-o-ptlcd telescopes gïows as the square of the telescope diameter,
S. insti-
and of ¡aàio telescopes as ih" di"ttt"tut to the 2 5 power' In applying such
a simple generalization to obtain an estimate of telescope cost, however,
unusual features of the tele-
-"ort be observeil by considering any
institu- ""otiJohat may signiffcantly afiect costs, Such {eatures may include: l)
scope t
exdemely tatgl apettures; 2) construction at remote or dificult sites; 3)
,rnor.r" y.g."ãt dìmensional tolerances or stability; 4) a requirement for
ost.
proper opãation and/or protection in severe environments; 5) complex
äutômatii-control or data-acquísition features; 6) a requirement for com-
plex electronic systems.
