Julia
My name is Julia Kinney and I am a senior in the astronomy instructing program! My favorite part of observations is the process of taking the exposures even though it is very cold out. I love seeing the final picture and seeing our work pay off. Finally, I love the community we have built of people who come out to stand in the freezing cold to learn about the telescope and astronomy in general.

Hey, I'm Nathan Lau. I am currently a senior and one of the instructors for the Astronomy Program. Being able to photograph deep-space objects is incredible. It is hard work, which makes being able to see a clear, crisp, and colorful final image, pay off well. As a future mechanical engineer, I love the technicality of how the telescope works and all the components the system consists of to make it work. This is one of the best opportunities I have ever taken and I have no regrets whatsoever. No matter how cold the weather will be, I will always be excited for an observation.

Hello! My name is Emily. I’m a sophomore in the GHHS Observing Program. I chose to become part of this program because space really fascinates me, and I love having the opportunity to go out and photograph nebulas. I really enjoy being able to learn more deeply about the science, space, and technology that makes it possible for us to perform research. I also love having fun during our observations, huddling in front of the heater (not melting my shoes).

Hi, my name is Ash Curette and I'm a senior in the Astronomy Program. I currently lead the work on the Celestron with a focus on Planetary and Solar Astronomy. This has been extremely exciting and I absolutely love the opportunity I've been given to work with the telescope. I especially love being able to problem-solve and experiment without the stakes of a grade and doing it simply because I enjoy the activity. Even if the telescope isn't behaving as it should, and I make minimal progress one night, I find every moment that I get to work with it to be interesting and rewarding. I'm especially thrilled to figure out how to properly take photos and to begin working with the sun.
