It was wonderful to see the students from last year presenting their posters and talking with astronomers and teachers from all over the world.
I didn't anticipate meeting engineers and graphic artists [at the AAS].
Some of my students will be benefiting directly [from my AAS trip] as I currently have 7 students interested in being part of our research team for NITARP. My first day back from the conference I spent the class time sharing with them the exciting news regarding exoplanet research from Dr. Marcy's presentation on Monday as well as a discussion on YSOs and the likely direction that our project will take.
