Observing (SMT)

It is a little over 3am in Taipei right now. I am about to begin the first of two nights (or mornings) of observations I have with the Sub-Millimeter Radio Telescope (SMT) in Arizona. I will observe a source in the collaboration I have with people of the group in Madrid where I was two years ago. It is a follow-up of the observations I did in early December.

Maybe the day the paper we submitted is accepted —if all goes well—, I will tell you more about it. Now, it would be a little bit too early. If we are lucky with the weather, we will observe lines of CO, ¹³CO and C¹⁸O. Nine hours today and nine tomorrow. I will spend this weekend either working or sleeping. That's Astronomy.
