About Maria Mitchell Observatory
The Maria Mitchell Observatory is in Nantucket, Massachusetts, United States. It was founded in 1908 and named in honor of Maria Mitchell, the first American woman astronomer. It is a major component of the Maria Mitchell Association. The facility actually consists of two observatories - the main Maria Mitchell Observatory near downtown Nantucket and the Loines Observatory about a kilometer west of town. It is also the repository for a valuable collection of over 8,000 wide-field glass photographic plates, recording observations of large swaths of sky from 1913 to 1995.
