Professional astronomers don't make discoveries by looking through an eyepiece like you might with a backyard telescope. Instead, they collect digital images in massive cameras attached to large telescopes.

    What kind of algorithms are those trains running?!

    Make sure you check out the simulator webpage for some sweet old school design and a lot of neat pictures! I love a good simulation.
