Astronomers using the U.S. National Science Foundation National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NSF NRAO) instruments are unveiling new scientific research that probes some of the most extreme environments in the universe. This news will be shared in press conferences at the 248th American Astronomical Society (AAS) meeting in Pasadena, June 14th-18th.
This work is part of a multi-year repainting effort designed to protect this national scientific asset from the elements and extend the NSF GBT’s working life for future generations of researchers.
Meet Evan Smith, data analyst at the Green Bank Observatory.
The U.S. National Science Foundation Green Bank Telescope (NSF GBT) produced data and images while supporting NASA’s Artemis II mission by helping to track the crewed Orion spacecraft throughout its historic journey around the Moon.
