A Kitt Peak Observer’s PhotoJournal

Elizabeth Warner, director of the University of Maryland’s campus observatory and part of the NASA Deep Impact mission outreach team, participated in a July 2004 “summer school” for university graduate students, as part of a larger partnership between NOAO and the university, which is located in College Park, MD.

Elizabeth assembled an interesting diary and photographic record of her experience, including some stunning pictures of lightning storms near Kitt Peak.
