    Paradise Is...A Starry Night

    Observing a dark night sky is inherently magical and awe-inspiring. Under ideal viewing conditions, a spectacle awaits—all you need to do is look up. The night sky offers various wonders, from a radiant full moon to a sky dotted with constellations, shooting stars, and eclipses. But it's more than just a visual feast; it sparks curiosity and wonder, igniting a passion for learning about space. Astronomers work tirelessly to unravel these cosmic mysteries, while educational programs are making the latest space research and discoveries accessible to all. These initiatives invite the public to visit observatories and deepen their understanding of astronomy. In this episode, we are joined by two individuals who illuminate the wonders of the cosmos through their unique yet complementary work in research and education. Guest Bios Rachel Fuechsl is Programs Manager at McDonald Observatory in far west Texas.  She has spent the last 20+ years of her career sharing the wonders of astronomy with the general public, students and teachers.  Prior to working in astronomy outreach, she worked as a radio news reporter in Chicago.  Rachel holds a master’s degree in astronomy from Wesleyan University and a bachelor’s degree in broadcasting from North Central College.  In her spare time, Rachel enjoys video games, poker, reading, travel and spending time with her two cats. Dr. Jed McKinney is an Astrophysicist based out of The University of Texas, Austin. His research focuses on revealing the hidden Universe using telescopes around the world, from the high deserts of Chile to space telescopes in orbit about the Sun. He’s passionate about the people and communities that make exploring the cosmos possible.
