PRNewswire USNewswire It appears that video games are not the only hot item in the cosmos. The show introduces viewers to the wonders of stargazing and demonstrates how Internet telescopes could help democratize amateur astronomy. Astronomy has long been a gateway to science says Ferris. Our film and Internet telescope are meant to serve as a timeless introduction to stargazing. Over star clusters nebulae and galaxies lie within range of the telescope and its digital imaging chip. Images are obtained free of charge by students of all ages who register at the project website www. Selecting and then receiving an astronomical image of one s own is a unique experience says Ferris. We hope that science teachers will continue to encourage their students to take advantage of this free educational tool. The images are emailed back to the students typically within a day or two. Funding for the project is provided by a grant from the National Science Foundation. Pre! ss information about the Seeing in the Dark documentary is available at www.
