The Cyclops AGN team will be continuing the work of last year's AGNatha team, using WISE data to identify anomalous AGN in Gaia.
I’ve always thought that probably most astronomers were just normal people who had a passion for astronomy, and my experience confirmed that. I felt like many of the astronomers I talked to were able to have normal conversations as well as “wow” me with lots of data and analysis.
Being a mentor teacher is easy because these teachers are fantastic. They're just off and running with the project.
The experience has and will continue to help me develop more effective uses of NASA/JPL resources for me and to promote professional development.
