Telescope at Kitt Peak

Dr. Moustakas, Megan, Kevin, and I have been up at the Mayall Telescope on Kitt Peak for the past two nights. We have had a fantastic Operating Assistant, Amy, here with us. The worst part about the time being here is that the weather has been terrible. Clouds, rain, ice, humidity, and wind have all kept us from observing. But that has given us time to see and learn about the telescope, how it is ran, and the dome it is kept in. We got some books and explored the building the telescope is in. Now we have just been coding and keeping up with the weather hoping for a change!
