OVRO

A slight change from my usual venues: The 130 ft. radio telescope at the Owens Valle Radio Observatory. Bishop, Ca.

Impressive device! Works well as a B&W and the dark skies seem fitting for the scene. Neat.

Thanks, once again! I'd never been out there so I decided to go for a drive and check it out. Neat place!

This is so totally awesome Kurt! It reminded me that I wanted to get out there to do a timelapse at night.

Is it open to the public? You look to be pretty close to it.

It's open during the day but I'm not sure at night.

I have seen a lot of cool Milky Way photos from there, so it must be open at night too.
