HOLY COW FOLKS, I am so excited to tell you the play-by-play of my first flight on @SOFIAtelescope and how FREAKIN COOL it was:
@SOFIAtelescope (telescope on airplane) is currently flying out of Christchurch, New Zealand for its “southern deployment.” It usually flies out of Palmdale, CA. They come down here to optimize time during northern hemisphere summer/Southern Hemisphere winter (long, cool nights).
Also some celestial targets are only observable from much farther south than round trip flights from/to California.
