Beautiful aurora from APO tonight!!!
We caught the Starliner coming in for a landing at White Sands using our all-sky camera! It's the streak in the southwest corner (lower right) of each frame. Thanks for sharing these @ajlemma !
Workplace photos of the aurora from APO courtesy of @ARedheadOfVenus and @ajlemma!! Great pics!!! 🤩

A rare sighting of all of our amazing 3.5m observing specialists in one place! Thanks to everyone for being there for the exciting training session on APOLLO operations. Pew pew!!! 💚
We had a great eyepiece viewing session for the ARC Board and SDSS AC meeting attendees! Thanks to @ARedheadOfVenus and @ajlemma for the wonderful sky tour!

Aurora spotted at @ApachePointObs last night! The oxygen red aurora is seen across the north and east and the higher altitude nitrogen blue aurora is seen as pillars in the north. #Auroraborealis #aurorasaurus

Congratulations to our own Observing Specialist and @nmsuastro grad student David DeColibus on publishing this paper about Uranus' strange moon Miranda, enabled by TripleSpec on the APO 3.5m. NASA should send a flagship mission to go study it! Oh wait... arxiv.org/abs/2204.10832

Fun fact! Did you know there is an astroid named after #NMSU? It is called Asteroid NEMSU! Check out this GIF of the asteroid zooming across the sky taken with the 1-meter at @ApachePointObs!
It’s an exciting new era for APO! lcsun-news.com/story/news/edu…
Congratulations to Adam Kowalski, an active user of both the 3.5m and 0.5m telescopes at APO!
