	MMT - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The MMT (Multiple Mirror Telescope) is a 6.5-meter telescope located on the summit of Mount Hopkins, in the Santa Rita Mountains in southern Arizona.
		The telescope is operated by the MMT Observatory, a joint venture of the Smithsonian Institution and the University of Arizona located on the grounds of the Whipple Observatory.
		The MMT operated between 1987 (when its construction was completed) and 1998 with 6 mirrors, each with a diameter of 1.8 meters, providing in total the equivalent gathering area of a 4.5-meter telescope.

	MMT Observatory
		The former 4.5-meter Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT), which was an array of six 1.8- meter mirrors, is being upgraded to the single 6.5-meter MMT in a $20 million conversion project to be completed by the end of the year.
		Aluminization of the mirror on the mountaintop at the MMT in December.
		The MMT was used to complete the largest ever survey for quasars, discovering more than 1,000 of these extremely energetic objects that exist near the edges of the universe, back almost to the beginning of time.

		MMT (methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl) is a fuel additive that has recently been approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for use in unleaded gasoline in the United States.
		Nearly 20 years of MMT use in Canada have not indicated that the exposure of the general population to manganese through the air or from the soil has increased.
		In cities where MMT is used, however, the level of ambient manganese is not significantly different from that in cities where MMT is not used.

	Bill Keel's Telescope Life List - MMT Observatory (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		MMT originally stood for Multiple-Mirror Telescope, made from what amounted to 6 independent 1.8-m telescopes on a single mount bringing light to a common (very small, because of differently tilted light paths) focal plane.
		Now that the MMT (with the same acronym but different words, now it's Magnum Mirror so they wouldn't need new stationery) is going into service as a 6.5m single-mirror instrument, we are starting a multiband imaging project to search for high-redshift galaxies and particularly survey clustering in the early Universe.
		The MMT was first touted as a path to new telescope technology, using laser metrology to constantly align the individual mirrors and give the equivalent light grasp of a 4.5m telescope at a fraction of the cost of traditional designs.

	Re: Calendar, MMT & Enoch (long)
		Greg understands MMT to indicate the priests in power at Jerusalem "separated" from the "multitude of the people" (the "rabble" as it were).
		But MMT indicates that the entirety of Jerusalem (not just the temple) was the "camp," and as such subject to higher levels of purity.
		My model (not original to me, obviously) is that the authors of MMT were critical of those currently in control of the temple, and were sectarians in the sense of having separated themselves from the Jerusalem temple cult.

		Ethyl Canada, the manufacturer of MMT, presented the Committee with data indicating that MMT is compatible with the latest in OBD technology and that it serves to improve air quality by reducing automobiles' emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx), a key component of urban smog, by significant amounts.
		MMT was considered synonymous with lead by several proponents of the Bill, including Minister Marchi and Elizabeth May of the Sierra Club of Canada.
		It remains that the evidence relating to a negative impact of MMT use on emissions of hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide, and consequently on the Canadian environment, is contradictory, inconclusive and speculative.

	The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Consensus Development Program: Effective Medical Treatment of Opiate Addiction
		MMT is effective in reducing illicit opiate drug use, in reducing crime, in enhancing social productivity, and in reducing the spread of viral diseases such as AIDS and hepatitis.
		Many of the barriers to effective use of MMT in the treatment of opiate dependence stem from misperceptions and stigmas attached to opiate dependence, the people who are addicted, those who treat them, and the settings in which services are provided.
		MMT must be culturally sensitive to enhance a favorable outcome for participating African American and Hispanic persons.

	Comments on the Gasoline Additive MMT (methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl) - OTAQ - EPA
		MMT is allowed in U.S. gasoline at a level equivalent to 1/32 grams per gallon manganese (gpg Mn).
		After completing a risk evaluation in 1994 on the use of MMT in gasoline, EPA was unable, based on the available data, to determine if these is a risk to the public health from exposure to emissions of MMT gasoline.
		More specifically, modeling indicates that, as a result of MMT use in unleaded gasoline, certain portions of the population may be exposed to levels in the same range as the Reference Concentration (RfC or safe level for a lifetime exposure with an order of magnitude uncertainty).

		I've looked at other possible times for the writing of MMT given its contents and I cannot imagine any time between 175 and 62 bce that would provide a context for such a document.
		That is one reason I tend to >put MMT as one of the last of the DSS, as Greg also suggests.

	LUBE REPORT: MMT Battle Pits Ethyl Against Automakers
		MMT is a gasoline additive, primarily an octane booster for unleaded gasoline.
		Ethyl noted, “In a vehicle using MMT fuel, less greenhouse-gas-forming nitrous oxide is emitted because the catalyst maintains a higher nitrous oxide-reducing catalytic action.
		MMT is a variable in the fuel so, even though it can dramatically improve the durability of a catalyst as well as reduce controlled atmospheric pollutants, auto companies feel that the extra certification costs offset that advantage.

	Needleman campaigns for more studies of gasoline additive MMT
		In full-page ads in newspapers around the country, Ethyl claimed that MMT is smog-reducing, that it has been approved by the EPA and used in Canada without adverse effect.
		He says that "nobody, including in Canada, has done a complete epidemiological study on the effects of MMT on humans." He also says that the manganese used in baby formula is inorganic and "relatively harmless." The manganese that comes out of the tailpipe, however, is an organic form of the chemical and toxic.
		In October, the appeals court ruled that MMT was not covered by regulations that require fuel additives to be tested before they are sold.
