Beautiful morning with the National Radio Astronomy Observatory | NRAO looking at the future NGVLA and how we can prepare students for career readiness through our CTE programs! We learned so much today about what’s happening right in our backyard! Climbing up a VLA was an amazing part of the tour!📡🪐☄️

ALMA ALMA Observatory📡 has a cool new resource for their visitor center in Chile! This model of ALMA's Array Operations Site (AOS) is 3D printed and connected to a mini computer. The model antennas can be moved and different images will appear on screen according to the configuration.
