Abstract
In order to complete a search begun thirty years ago for planetary nebulae and emission B stars in our galaxy, Mt. Wilson Observatory is shipping its small ten‐inch refractor telescope (actually a wide‐angle camera) to the University of Michigan's Lamont‐Hussey Observatory at Bloemfontein, South Africa. Since no more than three quarters of the Milky Way can be seen from Mt. Wilson, the camera is being sent to Africa to photograph the remaining quarter of the galaxy. The survey is expected to take approximately three years and will be made by a University of Michigan graduate student, Karl G. Henize, under the direction of Leo Goldberg, University of Michigan Observatory director.
