Interns with the Women In Science Discovering Our Mojave program spent a year studying night sky quality. Their findings provide a new baseline of data about the Mojave Desert.
WISDOM interns discovered the darkest spot in the western portion of Mojave Trails National Monument. A new group is continuing that quest for the entire monument.
Have you ever looked up at the night sky and marveled at its vastness? The stars are becoming harder and harder to see in populated areas, which is why MDLT’s WISDOM interns are monitoring the night sky quality in the western portion of Mojave Trails National Monument.
