TIP @ PARI day 8

A member of each research group reported on their progress this morning. Dr. Mel Blake gave them additional suggestions and direction for each project. Kati, David, Sarai, and Anna presented current happenings in astrobiology. After lunch, Dr. Paul Butler of the Carnegie Institute in Washington gave a talk about extra- solar planets (planets outside of our solar system). Dr. Castelaz introduced extragalactic astronomy and how a galaxy might form. Throughout the day students continued to work on their research projects, several groups used the different telescopes available at PARI. The day ended with observations (optical & radio), research, games, & cookies (homemade chocolate chip).
