Event Details

Join us for this week's Physic Seminar Special Lecture by:
Macalester Professor John Cannon

Macalester is entering the second full observing season as a founding member of the MACRO Consortium, which operates the Robert L. Mutel Telescope (RLMT) located in Arizona.  This robotic telescope is transforming the way we teach astronomy here at Macalester and offering our students an even broader range of research opportunities, from telescope operating software creation to student-driven research topics.  Prof. Canon will introduce the RLMT, and share the exciting ways that students from across the Consortium are benefiting from access to this remote observatory.
