Star Light Observatory

Recently, the observatory was open to show a class of 1st graders at Trailblazer Elementary, the observatory's telescope. We talked about how the telescope works and the need for a motorized telescope mount so we can track celestial objects in the sky. The students provided me some "alien" thank you cards for showing them the observatory.
