The Big Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO) exploits the excellent climatic conditions of Big Bear Lake to study the Sun, source of life on Earth. The observatory is located in the middle of Big Bear Lake to reduce the image distortion which usually occurs when the Sun heats the ground and produces convection in the air just above the ground. Turbulent motions in the air near the observatory are also reduced by the smooth flow of the wind across the lake instead of the turbulent flow that occurs over mountain peaks and forests. These conditions, combined with the usually cloudless skies over Big Bear Lake and the clarity of the air at 2,000 meters (6,750 feet) elevation, make the observatory a premier site for solar observations. The observatory was built by the California Institute of Technology in 1969. Management of the observatory, and an array of solar radio telescopes at Owens Valley Radio Observatory (OVRO) in Owens Valley, California, was transferred to the New Jersey Institute of Technology on July 1, 1997. Funding for the operation of the observatory is from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the National Science Foundation (NSF), the United States Air Force, the United States Navy and other agencies.
