ATIEAA - Acadian Tinkering in Electronically Assisted Astronomy

I've always looked up at the stars. When I go out of the city on a moonless night, far from light pollution and see them fill the sky, it still takes my breath away.

Looking at pictures on the interwebs of astronomical objects in the sky, shows me how much our eyes are limited. Even with the aid of a traditional telescope you are very limited. All those colors are there, but you don’t perceive them all because of the biology of the human eye.

“I look up at the night sky, and I know that, yes, we are part of this Universe, we are in this Universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts is that the Universe is in us. When I reflect on that fact, I look up—many people feel small, because they’re small and the Universe is big, but I feel big, because my atoms came from those stars.”  Neil deGrasse Tyson
