SUMMARY:Guest Speaker - Associate Professor Lee Spitler - Macquarie University
LOCATION:Green Point Observatory
DESCRIPTION:Challenge and interesting results from a new daytime astronomical observing
  campaignAt Macquarie Observatory on the Wallumattagal Campus in Macquarie 
 Park, we have been conducting observations during the daytime at visible wa
 velengths of light. I will share details of our stellar observation campaig
 n and highlight an unexpected result related to satellites in low earth orb
 it.\nAssociate Professor Lee SpitlerAssociate Professor Lee Spitler is a re
 searcher at Macquarie University, based within an applied research departme
 nt named Australian Astronomical Optics. Spitler's research focuses on deve
 loping new instrumentation and observing techniques to advance understandin
 g in a broad range of astronomical fields. A theme in his research is explo
 iting consumer technologies like Canon lenses. He is currently leading seve
 ral space-bound payload projects that support non-astronomy applications, s
 uch as safely landing on the surface of the moon.\n
