“Around the World in 80 Telescopes” will travel around the globe to
some of the most advanced observatories on and off the planet. Viewers
can find out what is happening at a research observatory in their home
country or on the other side of the planet, send in questions and
messages, see new images from the cosmos, and discover what
astronomers are doing right now. “Around the World in 80 Telescope”
will take viewers to every continent, including Antarctica. It will be
accessible from http://www.100hoursofastronomy.org/

The live webcast is part of an International Year of Astronomy 2009
Cornerstone project, 100 Hours of Astronomy - a worldwide celebration
taking place over four days and nights, from 2-5 April 2009.
