Our local pubic television station had a five minute segment on Arizona Illustrated this week. I am not on camera, but I was the "set designer" for the segments that took place at the National Optical Astronomy Observatory. If you look close, you can see my Saturn pic I took through the Galileoscope on one of the computer screens in the background. You also get a glimpse of Photon Engineering, the firm that did most of the optical design.Unfortunately, their embedding code starts it playing automatically every time the page loads. To keep from annoying you too much, you can click here to watch it.
That is it. I did it. My Galileoscope is on its way. I can't wait; wish I had it for tonight. I've always wanted to see the rings of Saturn...
