You are not going to want to miss our next Dark Energy Explorers Zoom call! You’re invited to join the scientists of Dark Energy Explorers for an hour-long event. Hobby Eberly Telescope (HET) is one of the largest telescopes in the world. Steven Janowiecki, one of our astronomers who works at the telescope full-time will be giving us a behind the scenes tour of the dome floor, how the mirrors get coated in the lab, and the control room where the observations are taken every night. [HET is utilized within our citizen science project in surveying the night skies and retrieving image sources you, our volunteers, help in classifying.] These are the U.S time-zones! 4pm EST /3pm CT /1pm PCT
