Description

Observatoriet i Genève er et observatorium, der blev grundlagt i 1772 af Jean André Mallet nær byen Genève. Det er i dag kendt for opdagelsen af den første eksoplanet i 1995 af Michel Mayor og Didier Quéloz.
De første videnskabelige aktiviteter ved observatoriet bestod primært af tidsmålinger, meteorologi samt studiet af formørkelser, kometer, planeter og efter århundredeskiftet også observationen af variable stjerner. Den langvarige direktør for observatoriet var Jean Alfred Gautier. Han blev efterfulgt af Emile Plantamour indtil 1882, hvorefter Gautiers nevø Émile Gautier overtog ledelsen af observatoriet. Efter at hans søn Raoul Gautier i 1889 havde overtaget professoratet i astronomi ved Genève Akademi, overgav Émile Gautier også ledelsen af observatoriet til ham. Han styrede institutet for astronomi og observatoriet indtil slutningen af 1927, tidspunktet hvor han trak sig tilbage fra sine embeder. Det oprindelige observatorium i Genève bestod indtil 1966, hvor det til sidst blev flyttet til Sauverny. Dette skete på initiativ af professor Marcel Golay, som havde formandskabet ved det nye observatorium indtil 1992.
