Sposorship[edit]

The article states:

National Astronomical Observatory of Japan is an astronomical observatory comprised of several facilities sponsored jointly by the United States and Japan.

I didn't know Japan's National Observatory was sponsored by United States. What kind of sponsorship does this refer to? --- Fukumoto 17:53, 21 May 2005 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This has since been changed to reflect that the NAOJ has a facility in Hawai but is not sponsored by the US government.Colincbn (talk) 10:41, 11 November 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
