It’s been great to see people getting excited about the observatory, including locals and international travelers.”

Dr. Herring said that the worldwide recognition that the article brings comes at the perfect time as the observatory is preparing for a special occasion.
“Especially heading toward our 20th anniversary, I hope that this will bring in more people from around town and around the world to explore the universe with myself and the dedicated volunteers,” he said.
