InOMN

International Observe the Moon Night 2020! From 7:15 pm to 8:30 pm I will host a live virtual lunar observing party for the Bellaire High School community. The district restrictions on our video conferencing software make it hard to produce a publicly available event but I will try. We will use Microsoft Teams and hopefully this link will work for visitors.

More information about the moon from Houston on September 26th.

Authentic Astronomy Research AAS 235 Poster

At the AAS 235 winter conference, my fellow researchers and I were fortunate enough to get a chance to present our work at a poster presentation.

We put together a lot more information about the project to share with others.
