Stan's Talk at ASLI


Stan drove out from the city tonight to speak at ASLI about his astronomy clubs two new remote telescopes.  They have a telescope in an observatory on a remote mountain in Texas. Members can sigh up to get observing time on the scope in order to take astro photographs.  Then they set up another remote telescope in Chile!  Wow!  From there members can photograph objects in the southern hemisphere which we can't see from here.  He had a really attentive audience!  I should add, that his incentive to come speak involved the promise that I bake Mediterranean Salmon for dinner which he loves.  And honestly, I do a pretty good job making that dish.

I can imagine that the members would really enjoy his talk about the remote telescopes in Texas & Chile.
I know he loves your Mediterranean Salmon :-) Betsey

How does that work that they have a telescope in Chile? Is it a partnership with an organization?
