A few days back I got an invite to join a group on LinkedIn<\/a>. It was called The Virtual Telescope Project<\/a>, a name that interested me enough to go ahead and check out what was this all about. And once I was on the website<\/a>, I knew I had to write a Sunday Spotlight on this particular service provided by the Bellatrix Astronomical Observatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The homepage beckons you to enter the website with the message, “Enjoy the real Universe from your desktop, live!”. It is available in English<\/a> and Italian<\/a>. This project\/telescope is a participant in the IYA2009<\/a> activities. The website is created and directed by Gianluca Masi.<\/a> Here you will find out<\/a> what makes Virtual Telescope a unique case in the world. The Virtual Telescope offers live shows<\/a> and astronomical Labs<\/a>, in real-time or with archived material (the latter being free).<\/p>\n

I am very much looking forward to participate in their next live show on Monday 3rd August<\/a>, which is in Italian. But … the fascinating beauty of the deep space is beyond spoken word<\/a>. <\/div>\n
