Mining current optical and infrared databases to find variable active galactic nuclei.
I had an amazing, exhausting time at the AAS meeting. I found myself continually challenged by the intellectual level and knowledge being shared.
I have a much better sense of what research astronomy is about now, and I think I will have more confidence to try new things (related to astronomy) going forward.
Always impresses me how well a ‘kid’ can perform if supported and presented with a challenge that interests them.
