Atacama Desert – Day and Night
The sky view on a clear dark night in Canada is nice, but the view from the Atacama Desert is FANTASTIC! Why are they putting all the new big telescopes on mountaintops in Chile? It’s not only because it’s high, dry, and dark, the southern hemisphere is full of night sky wonders. Join us as three astronomers share their experiences and astro photographs from a recent venture to Chile.
