has gloss | eng: Mexico's National Astronomical Observatory was first established on the balcony of Chapultepec Castle in Mexico City in 1878. It was later moved to Tacubaya, then on the outskirts of the city, a location remembered in the Observatorio station of the Mexico City Metro, situated nearby. In the middle of the 20th century, the Observatory was removed from the increasingly crowded and polluted Valley of Mexico and set up in Tonantzintla, Puebla. Excessive lighting and pollution forced the last final move of the Observatory to the Sierra San Pedro Mártir, in Baja California, in 1967. This has proved an excellent location suitable for astronomical observation. It is run and operated by the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). |
