Description:
NOIRLab has a wide variety of educational programs at all sites. Two of the large flagship programs took place in March: Journey Through the Universe at Gemini Observatory in Hawai’I and AstroDay Chile in La Serena, Chile. Both programs are traditionally done in person. In 2021, however, both programs had to adapt and become virtual events. Learn about this programs and how they changed in 2021 and hear what the future may hold!
