Around the World in 80 Telescopes

As part of the International Year of Astronomy, there will be 24 hours of continuous streaming video from astronomical telescopes around the world from April 3 9:00 UTC to April 4 9:00 UTC.  The Allen Telescope Array – an effort of the SETI Institute (along with the Radio Astronomy Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley) – has its 20 minutes of fame tomorrow at 4:40 pm PDT (23:40 UTC).

If you think big telescopes are cool, take a look at the teaser now, or just tune in on Friday, April 3 to see SETI observing with the ATA.
