Scientific paper

Astronomers had the first deep look into the northern sky some twenty years ago, when the Palomar 48" Schmidt telescope surveyed the sky north' of 30° declinatiqn. This survey, which was publisheq on paper prints and on grass copies as the National Geographic SocietY-Palomar Observatory Sky Atlas, had a tremendous impact on optical astronomy.. Many new galactic and extragalactic objects of great interest were found and most new radio-sources are still identified from this atlas. No wonder that astronomers were looking forward to a similar survey in the south, covering that part of the sky which the Palomar 48" Schmidt (latitude + 30°) could not reach.
