The Rock Tree Sky Observatory has been over a year in the making. Many hands and minds went into this first light! M13 in Hercules. Look for the galaxies in the background! There are several.

Dearest friends of Rock Tree Sky! If you have the resources to support some of our learner-focused projects here at RTS, we'd be deeply grateful. We are an educational 501c3 and can provide a receipt of charitable donation for your tax purposes. https://t.co/K4ABbEhff9

It’s like the Transformative Education World Cup! With the difference that we are all shooting into the same goal. I’m on the edge of my seat and deeply inspired by everyone on the panels! Thank you @YassPrize
