Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • John

    I think the best part about the trip and NITARP as a whole is the chance to do authentic research and learn the methods and techniques used to tease as much information out of the data as possible. It still amazes me (and this is what I try to instill in the students in my astronomy classes) that we can learn so much from a tiny point of light if we are just clever enough to know how to look at it.

  • Sartore

    Student involvement in authentic research is an idea whose time has come.

    I am excited to embark on this research and feel lucky to be part of the experience.
