editWe should consider folding this into the Samuel Oschin Telescope article. --LucasBrown (talk) 08:37, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- There is also an article for the Palomar Transient Factory, the forerunner to this. Agmartin (talk) 17:02, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
PTF vs ZTF
editI just noticed that the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), the successor of the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) (Src), have both the same observatory code, namely I41. The current published MPC-obs.-code-version gives I41 Palomar Mountain--ZTF , while a few months ago the same list displayed I41 Palomar Mountain--PTF. This is rather confusing (keeping the same obs. code) as it leads to all kind of inconsistencies. However, it seems that both ZTF and PTF merit a dedicated article on wikipedia, and don't see a reason why either of them should be added to the Samuel Oschin Telescope article. Any thoughts on this? Anyone? Rfassbind – talk 21:37, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
Can someone verify and add who it's named after?
