Re .1: BTW, the ATMOB home page is at http://www.adac.com/atmob/ . Re .2: > As far as I know, there are no optical telescopes there ... There's at least one obvious dome for a small optical scope on the left side of the road, in the clump of buildings where the road first hooks right towards the buildings near the two large antennas (one movable, one fixed) on top of Millstone Hill. I don't imagine it's used for much, though. On a separate dirt road, I see there's an optics facility: http://www.haystack.edu/DPS/optics0.htm I don't know if any of that equipment could be called a telescope. >...

There are definitely defense related activities there. The "Firepond
Lidar" there is used by some defense companies.
