Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Currie-Gregg Observatory (CGO) is named in honor of NASA Astronaut and former U.S. Army aviator Dr. Nancy Currie-Gregg. Located atop the roof of Enid High School, it is the only high school astronomical observatory in Oklahoma. The dome was constructed in 1963 with funds from the National Defensive Education Act. In the fall of 1965, additional Title III money was used for the purchase of a Tinsley Laboratories Model D 8-inch Cassegrain reflecting telescope, one of the premiere observational instruments of its time. The telescope was put into service in early 1966 and remains in place as the principle viewing apparatus.
