This virtual team collects all independent research presented in 2010, and done by NITARP or Spitzer alumni with students outside of a formal NITARP team. Four different teams presented results in 2010!
Astronomers, all of whom are scientists, can be personal, funny, and outright social beings.
I found it most interesting to see the scientific process in action. Scientists were questioning scientists, sometimes fairly aggressively.
Having scientists explain their research and bringing it down to my level was very interesting and I learned so much!
