Plaques

The Huachuca Astronomy Club is a sponsor of the 8.4-meter mirrors that will be part of the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) on Mt. Graham in southeastern Arizona. The plaque, which contains an engraved hexagon cell cap from one of the mirrors, will be kept at Dave Healy's observatory for all to view. Presented to HAC on behalf of David Patterson, HAC's Life Member.

Another plaque is in commemoration of the naming of a minor planet (37163) after the club (named "huachucaclub"). Discovered and named by Jeff Medkeff and Dave Healy.
