The next World AstroCast is scheduled for Sat March 29th at 20-00hrs GMT.(16:00 EDT, 15:00 CDT, 14:00 MDT,13:00 PDT) . For this event we are privileged in having Dr Grant Christie and Jennie McCormick giving their presentation "Hunting Planets with Gravity's Telescope". They were major contributors to the team that recently confirmed the existence of two planets orbiting a star 5,000 light years away. The telescope used was a 10" (250mm) Schmitt Cas. Learn just how they did it and of exciting discoveries that are to come.
