LICK OBSERVATORY HOW TO

The Akamai Workforce Initiative (AWI) is funded by a consortium that includes UCO and is led by the University of Hawaii at Manoa’s Institute for Astronomy, the Thirty Meter Telescope, National Solar Observatory, and many Hawaii observatories, companies, academic institutions, and community organizations.Īdditional information, including how to get involved, can be found at the Akamai Workforce Initiative (AWI) website. Participating students have been tracked for many years, and 83% have remained on a STEM pathway. The internship model used by AWI was originally developed by the Center for Adaptive Optics, and includes a range of innovative support mechanisms to advance participants into STEM careers. Lick Observatory, on Mount Hamilton, near San Jose, California, is a 100+ year old observatory. We present BVRI and unfiltered light curves of 93 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the Lick Observatory Supernova Search (LOSS) follow-up program. This 2020 California wildfire season has been a bad one, the second-worst on record. Over the years a wealth of material illustrating. The observatory is an active center of astronomical research with a long and notable history.

he University of California's Lick Observatory has been in operation on the 4200-foot summit of Mount Hamilton, east of San Jose, California, since 1888. But these pristine conditions come at a cost, as these regions are also wildfire magnets for primarily the same reasons. The Lick Observatory Collections Project: Home. The initiative includes internships for college students, technical training, career coaching, and training for scientists and engineers to become more effective educators and mentors. (California observatory of long standing). The clear, dry mountaintop skies of the southwestern United States are a mecca for astronomers. The primary goal of AWI is to build a local technical workforce that reflects the diverse demographics of the state of Hawaii.
