Our new Junior Astronomer program will be ready for take off this Memorial Weekend 🚀!Who's ready to join the ranks? . . . #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #flagstaffaz #flagstaff #arizona #science #space #astronomy #stemeducation #jrastronomer
Happy birthday to loyal observatory dog, Lucky! So appropriately named for having a birthday today 🍀 #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #flagstaffaz #flagstaff #arizona #dogsofflagstaff #happybirthday
Happy Birthday Percival, 162 years young! #happybirthday #percivallowell #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #flagstaffaz
Picturesque as always, the night sky above Lowell's Discovery Channel Telescope last night. Photo thanks to Dr. Joe Llama, one of our astronomers out observing on the DCT. • • • #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #flagstaffaz #flagstaff #arizona #discoverychanneltelescope #dct #telescope #science #space #astronomy #astrophotography

Lowell astronomer Joe Llama took this photo last night while observing the night sky with Lowell's Discovery Channel Telescope. Looks like a great night for viewing! #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #dct #discoverychanneltelescope #telescope #astrophotography #milkyway #arizona #science #space #astronomy #nightsky
M27 a.k.a. the Dumbbell Nebula is a planetary nebula located about 400 pc (1,400 light-years) away. It was the first planetary nebula ever discovered, in 1764. A planetary nebula forms when a star like our sun evolves first to a red giant stage, and sheds material, and evolves to a white dwarf. The central star in this nebula (the white dot directly at the center of the nebula) is the largest white dwarf known. This image was taken with the Large Monolithic Imager (LMI) on Lowell Observatory's Discovery Channel Telescope.

What a difference a good night of seeing makes! The image on the left was taken by the LMI on the DCT during a night of poor seeing (that's when the Earth's atmosphere perturbs what is seen through a telescope). The image on the right was also taken with the LMI on the DCT in late June during better seeing conditions. M95 is a barred spiral galaxy located about 38 million light-years away.

The finished product! This fresh mirror coating was achieved by putting the clean 14-ft glass in a vacuum chamber and then having vaporized aluminum fall onto it. #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #arizona #dct #discoverychanneltelescope #telescope #mirror #science #space #astronomy #optics #engineering
Now without its aluminum coating, the mirror's glass needs to be extra clean before it is put in the re-aliminization chamber. . . . #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #arizona #dct #discoverychanneltelescope #telescope #science #space #astronomy #engineering
The DCT's 4.3-m (about 14 ft) mirror was lifted out of the M1 cell this afternoon. Next the mirror needs to be carefully cleaned in preparation for re-aluminization. #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #arizona #dct #discoverychanneltelescope #telescope #mirror #science #space #astronomy #engineering
And touchdown! . . . #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #arizona #dct #telescope #discoverychanneltelescope #science #space #astronomy #engineering
Slowly.... . . . #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #arizona #dct #telescope #discoverychanneltelescope #science #space #astronomy #engineering
M1 is out! Now to lower it down and lay it flat. #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #arizona #dct #telescope #discoverychanneltelescope #science #space #astronomy #engineering
A DCT engineer removes counterweights on Lowell's DCT. This is just the beginning of the process to access the DCT's mirror for re-aluminization. #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #dct #telescope #happyjack #arizona #science #space #astronomy #engineering #discoverychanneltelescope
A little local wildlife today at Lowell. We've got a hummingbird friend nesting in one the spruce trees on Mars Hill. #lowellobervatory #lowell #observatory #flagstaff #arizona #flagstaffaz #wildlife #localwildlife #hummingbird #nature #video #birdnest #summertime
According to Lowell Observatory’s Dr. Nick Moskovitz the meteor seen in the early morning hours of June 2nd in Arizona would have been slightly larger than first reported and because of the size there is a strong possibility that fragments of the meteor made it to Earth. The general location of these fragments are known to scientist who are attempting to collect some and hopefully learn a little more about its origin. These images were captured by several of our LOCAMS video cameras. #AZMeteor #lowellobservatory #lowell #observatory #flagstaffaz #flagstaff #arizona #meteor #science #space #astronomy
