UPDATE: i just shared this note with my colleagues:
"To my incredible colleagues at CBS: I want to personally let you know that my work will soon no longer appear on CBS News. This is my decision, and I appreciate the bosses at CBS for understanding it.
I will always value the opportunity I had to work alongside the talented and committed professionals here. I'm proud to have had the words 'CBS correspondent' next to my name - always will be.
For the next phase of my career, I look forward to some independence and finding new spaces to share my work in line with my personal goals. I thank you all. The work will not stop, and I'll always be a call away"

Some of my favorite photos I’ve captured of other galaxies. These were all captured from my backyard using modest equipment. Other galaxies are so large in the night sky you don’t need a huge telescope to capture them!
