Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Curtis

    The NITARP experience is truly phenomenal, and our scientist was wonderful to work with – never condescending and always very clear in his explanations.

  • Linda

    I’m excited to tell my students about this research and share my experiences from the [AAS] last week.

  • Hall

    The most interesting thing was the total experience of working with such amazing professional astronomers doing real science. I really did not know what to expect. The experience did exceed, in a positive way, all my imaginations.
