Overview<br />
<strong>Clyde</strong> W. Tombaugh Papers, ca. 150 linear ft.<br />
Personal and professional papers of the planetary astronomer who discovered Pluto in<br />
1930. Personal papers document Tombaugh's Kansas boyhood, his early interest in astronomy<br />
and telescope making, and his arrival at Lowell Observatory, Flagstaff, Arizona, in 1929. Later<br />
materials concern his diverse interests in politics, education, and religion, and his family life.<br />
The extensive professional papers span Tombaugh's full career, from his observational work at<br />
Lowell to his tenure at <strong>New</strong> <strong>Mexico</strong> <strong>State</strong> University (NMSU). Tombaugh's employment at the<br />
White Sands Proving Ground (1946-1955) and his research in optics are included. The Near<br />
Earth Satellite Search, a study initiated by Tombaugh at White Sands and continued during his<br />
subsequent employment at NMSU is thoroughly documented. The bulk of the professional<br />
papers concern his employment at NMSU (1955-1973) and his work with the Planetary Patrol<br />
and Study Project. Records also illustrate the development of the NMSU Department of<br />
Astronomy. Correspondence with prominent professional and amateur astronomers,<br />
astrophysicists, and experts in related sciences is found throughout the collection, as are such<br />
visual materials as drawings, photographs, and maps.<br />
Access and Use<br />
Open. This material may be examined by researchers under supervised conditions in the Search<br />
Room.<br />

Acquisition<br />
<strong>Clyde</strong> W. Tombaugh agreed to donate his papers to the Rio Grande Historical <strong>Collections</strong> in<br />
1972. The first accession of his papers was received in 1994 when poor health led Tombaugh to<br />
close his office in the <strong>New</strong> <strong>Mexico</strong> <strong>State</strong> University Department of Astronomy. Following<br />
Tombaugh's death in 1997, additional materials were received from Patricia Tombaugh and from<br />
the Department of Astronomy. Additional material, including the Tombaugh Oral History<br />
Project, was received from Herbert A. Beebe in 2003. In all, nineteen accessions were received.<br />

Processing<br />
Processed by Melissa Gottwald, 2003-2004, with assistance from Lenny Silverman;<br />
initial arrangement and description by Marah deMeule, Christine Moreland-Bruhnke, and<br />
Herbert A. Beebe, assisted by Nancy Shockley and Cassandra Begay, 2001-2003.<br />
The processing of the Tombaugh Papers was begun in Spring 2001, under the direction of<br />
project archivist Marah deMeule with the aid of processing assistant Christine Moreland-<br />
Bruhnke. The processing staff found a lack of coherent original order, and it was decided to<br />
process the collection at the item level. At this time a preliminary series organization was<br />
established, separating the materials into personal and professional papers, with additional series<br />
for photographs and oversize materials. The Personal and Professional Papers series were<br />
further broken down into subseries by type of material or, in the Professional Papers, by<br />
institution. Another major component of the early processing work was separating the<br />
NMSU Library/<strong>Archives</strong> & <strong>Special</strong> <strong>Collections</strong> C. W. Tombaugh Papers / Ms0407<br />

correspondence into the categories of personal and professional correspondence and fan mail.<br />
By Summer 2002, both deMeule and Moreland-Bruhnke had left the program. The arrangement<br />
work begun under their direction was continued by student assistants.<br />
In March 2003, Melissa Gottwald began work as the new project archivist for the<br />
Tombaugh Papers. Under her direction, the preliminary series organization was refined. Major<br />
organizational changes included the addition of four series: Printed Matter, Audio-Visual<br />
Material, Oral History, and Artifacts. In addition, many of the subseries within the Personal and<br />
Professional Papers were further broken down into sub-subseries in order to bring similar<br />
materials (such as research files) together. The existing container list was revised in accordance<br />
with these changes, and the scope and content note, series descriptions, and biographical sketch<br />
were written. The processing project was completed in February 2004.<br />

Scope and Content Note<br />
The <strong>Clyde</strong> W. Tombaugh Papers serve as a rich source for the history of astronomy as<br />
well as for research into Tombaugh's professional work and his personal life. The papers<br />
provide ample documentation of Tombaugh's work in astronomy and optical design, as well as<br />
illustrating his family life and his varied interests in education, religion, and environmental<br />
issues. Included in the collection are correspondence; biographical notes and curricula vitae;<br />
writings; speeches and lectures; research files; administrative files; teaching files; technical<br />
reports; high school and university papers; financial and legal records; telescope design<br />
drawings; files related to professional and non-professional organizations; subject files;<br />
photographs; audiovisual material; and printed matter.<br />
Tombaugh's extensive correspondence files provide an unsurpassed source for<br />
understanding him as a person, for seeing the centrality of his astronomical interests to his<br />
personal as well as his professional activities, and for providing insight into his educational,<br />
environmental, political, and religious interests. The correspondence is separated into personal<br />
and professional correspondence (and further divided by institution within the professional<br />
correspondence). Reflecting the interconnections of his personal life and his professional work,<br />
there is considerable overlap of correspondents and topics among the several sets of<br />
correspondence. Because of this overlap, the researcher is advised that correspondence from a<br />
particular individual or on a particular subject may be located in more than one set of<br />
correspondence. Significant correspondents include George Abel, Ira S. Bowen, Charles F.<br />
(Chick) Capen Jr., James Christy, Pete Domenici, Audouin Dollfus, Frank K. Edmondson, James<br />
B. Edson, Krafft A. Ehricke, Henry L. Giclas, Walter A. Haas, Dorrit Hoffleit, J. Allen Hynek,<br />
Gerard P. Kuiper, Lincoln La Paz, C. O. Lampland, Frederick C. Leonard, David H. Levy, Brian<br />
Marsden, Patrick Moore, Frederick I. Ordway III, Roger L. Putnam, Dirk Reuyl, Elizabeth<br />
Roemer, Carl Sagan, Harrison Schmitt, Glenn T. Seaborg, Harlow Shapley, E. C. Slipher, V. M.<br />
Slipher, Hyron Spinrad, Bradford A. Smith, Alan Stern, G. Harry Stine, Otto Struve, Gerard de<br />
Vaucouleurs, Wernher von Braun, Fred L. Whipple, Albert G. Wilson, Latimer J. Wilson, and<br />
Fritz Zwicky.<br />
Tombaugh's work in planetary astronomy is well documented, both in his professional<br />
career and in his early amateur work. Although the whole of Tombaugh's career is included, the<br />
amount of material varies greatly. The majority of the Professional Papers date from<br />
Tombaugh's tenure at <strong>New</strong> <strong>Mexico</strong> <strong>State</strong> University (NMSU). Also well represented is his work<br />
at White Sands Proving Ground. The files from Lowell Observatory, and his teaching at Arizona<br />
<strong>State</strong> Teachers College and University of California at Los Angeles, are of a much more modest<br />
scope.<br />
Specific topics that are well documented in the collection include Pluto, Mars, telescopes<br />
and optics. The discovery of Pluto is documented primarily through correspondence, both<br />
personal and professional. Additional documentation is provided by Tombaugh's numerous<br />
articles and lectures about his recollections of the discovery, as well as a modest number of<br />
handwritten notes from the planet search, copies of planet search plates, and printed matter from<br />
the time of the discovery. The original photographic plates from the planet search, including the<br />
Pluto discovery plates, and related documents are held by the Lowell Observatory <strong>Archives</strong>, in<br />
NMSU Library/<strong>Archives</strong> & <strong>Special</strong> <strong>Collections</strong> C. W. Tombaugh Papers / Ms0407<br />

Flagstaff, Arizona. Although Tombaugh did not focus his later research on Pluto, as the planet's<br />
discoverer he did make an effort to keep current with ongoing research on the ninth planet.<br />
Correspondence, subject files, and printed matter all provide insight into the development of<br />
scientific knowledge about Pluto, evolving theories, and the recurring debate on Pluto's status as<br />
a major planet. Of particular note are the files from the conference "Pluto - The Ninth Planet's<br />
Golden Year" held at NMSU in February 1980 to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of<br />
Tombaugh's discovery.<br />
The planet Mars sparked <strong>Clyde</strong> Tombaugh's imagination as a young man and continued<br />
to be a primary interest for the rest of his life. Included in his papers are sketches and notes from<br />
his observations of the red planet, as well as writings, research projects, printed matter, and<br />
extensive subject files. The geology of Mars, and the question of the Martian canals, were of<br />
significant interest to Tombaugh, and his papers reflect this focus.<br />
The problem of constructing reflecting telescopes for astronomical use occupied<br />
Tombaugh throughout his life. His work on telescopes for his own personal use, and for friends<br />
and colleagues, is well represented by design sketches, log books, and related correspondence.<br />
The "16-Inch Club" that Tombaugh formed for amateur telescope-makers who wished to obtain<br />
the materials to grind large telescope mirrors is documented in his general personal<br />
correspondence, as well as in the Telescopes and Optics subseries within the Personal Papers<br />
series. An extensive set of design drawings exist for the tracking telescopes used to photograph<br />
rockets and missiles at White Sands Proving Ground; these are supplemented by research files<br />
and technical reports.<br />
Also found in the Tombaugh Papers are descriptions of the NMSU Department of<br />
Astronomy's first telescopes, the 12-inch Fecker and the 16-inch Rhodes telescope, and<br />
information on their acquisition for Tombaugh's research projects and their eventual transfer to<br />
the University for general research use. Tombaugh's active involvement in the design of other<br />
telescopes acquired by the Department of Astronomy and in the planning of the department's<br />
several observatories is illustrated through his correspondence, administrative files, files on the<br />
telescopes and observatories, and in the drawings and blueprints found in the oversize materials.<br />
The collection is an excellent source for studying the development of the astronomy<br />
research program at NMSU and the formation of the academic Department of Astronomy, with<br />
particular focus on Tombaugh's involvement in both of these areas. Tombaugh's satellite search<br />
project, transferred to NMSU in 1955, can be viewed as the beginning of astronomy research at<br />
the university, and this project and later ones, particularly the planetary patrol, are amply<br />
documented in his research files. In the early 1960s as the astronomy research program became<br />
firmly established, Tombaugh was asked to begin teaching some astronomy and geology courses.<br />
These courses opened the way to the establishment of a full-fledged graduate level Department<br />
of Astronomy, and correspondence and administrative files in the NMSU subseries of the<br />
Professional Papers show the planning and development of the program.<br />
An oral history project of Tombaugh's family, friends, and colleagues was carried out by<br />
Herbert A. Beebe to preserve personal recollections of Tombaugh and his work at Lowell<br />
Observatory, White Sands Proving Ground, and <strong>New</strong> <strong>Mexico</strong> <strong>State</strong> University. Those<br />
interviewed were Patricia Tombaugh, Reta F. Beebe, Tom Bruce, Henry Giclas, Walter Haas,<br />
Bernard McNamara, Robert Millis, Arthur Scott Murrell, Cecil Post, William L. Reitmeyer,<br />

may include notes on two or more distinct topics. In these cases the notes are filed under the<br />
predominant topic, with additional topics listed in parentheses. Also in Astronomical Subjects is<br />
an astronomy notebook compiled by Tombaugh; included in this notebook is a typed and<br />
handwritten account "Some astronomical events in my life." Miscellaneous Subjects contains<br />
notes and printed material on subjects including energy issues, geology, and optics. The UFO<br />
related files begin with correspondence arranged alphabetically by correspondent; general files<br />
are arranged alphabetically following the correspondence.<br />

contains documents concerning astronomical research, primarily planetary research, conducted at<br />
NMSU; included is professional correspondence (primarily outgoing) of Bradford A. Smith and<br />
other observatory staff members. The general research files are arranged alphabetically by<br />
subject. Projects and grants contains primarily administrative files concerning projects proposed<br />
and carried out by NMSU astronomers. In addition the Cloudcroft Seeing Study and the Near<br />
Earth Satellite Search files include data collected during the studies. The majority of the projects<br />
were conducted by Tombaugh, however projects by Bradford A. Smith and William L.<br />
Reitmeyer are also found here. The projects and grants files are arranged alphabetically by<br />
project title.<br />

The <strong>Clyde</strong> W. Tombaugh Oral History Project was conducted by Herbert A. Beebe in<br />
1999-2002. The fourteen individuals interviewed include Patricia Tombaugh, personal friends,<br />
colleagues from Lowell Observatory, White Sands Proving Ground and NMSU, and fellow<br />
astronomers. The interviews are arranged in four groupings, Early Connections: Patricia<br />
Tombaugh, Henry Giclas, Walter Haas; White Sands Era: Arthur Scott Murrell, Jimmy<br />
Robinson, Cecil Post, Tom Bruce; NMSU and the Department: Brad Smith, William L.<br />
Reitmeyer, Lou Ann Youngblood, Charles L. Seeger; and, Latter Day Projects: Bernard<br />
McNamara, Robert Millis, Alan Stern. Also included here is an interview with Reta F. Beebe<br />
which was done as a practice and is not part of the oral history project proper. Transcripts and<br />
audio recordings of the interviews are included, and researchers are advised to make use of the<br />
transcripts rather than the audiocassettes.<br />

by the National <strong>Archives</strong> and Records Administration (NARA). The original documents are<br />
filed in the appropriate series. This box contains the photocopies that were sent to NARA for<br />
declassification review; the copies have been retained because they contain NARA's original<br />
declassification markings. In addition, copies of correspondence from NARA concerning the<br />
declassification of these documents is also found here; the original correspondence is filed in the<br />
<strong>Archives</strong> and <strong>Special</strong> <strong>Collections</strong> Department's administrative files.<br />
