Hey people
I find myself in Sutherland again. This time I'm doing absolutely nothing to do with exoplanets though. I'm helping my thesis supervisor and one of his collaborators by observing some objects that we need to find very accurate positions and velocities for. This project was initiated by NASA and we will be helping the Hubble Space Telescope to update its pointing software. Unfortunately it looks like the weather isn't playing along. It looks like a cold front is on the way and we even have rain predicted for the next couple of days.
Aside from this, the enclosure for the KELT South telescope seems to be coming along nicely. The man responsible for it all is here in Sutherland at the moment with me and he is hopeful that the dome of the little building will be installed on Monday (25 August). I'll be taking lots of photos and will post some here soon.
Bye bye
