The Green Bank Star Quest is a premier astronomy event in the U.S. The host facility, the Green Bank Observatory is a first-class facility. The are over 24 hours of lectures in the modern lecture halls and rooms. You can sign up for hands-on training and operation of a radio telescope as well as tour the Green Bank Telescope, an engineering and scientific marvel. Oh yeh, the skies are pretty dark there, too. I had 2 excellent nights of imaging, one night being a solid 9.5 out of 10. Please check out the YouTube video for sights and sounds from the party and I hope you enjoy the images below. See you next year at GBSQ 2023.
