  1. Royal Greenwich Observatory, Cambridge CB3 0EZ, UK

You report a proposal to 'return' the name of the Royal Greenwich Observatory to the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich (Nature 388, 705; 1997). We have no wish to cause offence to our parent organization, but, as with all children leaving home, there can be no going back.
