Skynet Scholars: First Session
Advanced registration is required.
Skynet Scholars is a program for middle and high school students that puts them in the driver’s seat to conduct their own scientific explorations of the universe. Scholars learn how to access a global network of research-grade telescopes that serve professional astronomers and students alike over the internet. They will get to experience hands-on astronomy and STEM based activities including the use of robotic telescopes to take their own astronomical images.
Learn more about the national Skynet Jr. Scholars program & the Skynet Robotic Telescope Network.
