Oak Ridge astronomy club hosts radio telescope talk
The next ORION program will take place at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 18, at the City Room (Room A-111) in the McNally-Coffey Building at Roane State Community College’s Oak Ridge campus , 701 Briarcliff Ave. The program, “35 Years of Amateur Radio Astronomy,” will be presented by Carl Lyster. The program is free and open to the public. A live Zoom session will also be available. The talk will address the detection of atomic hydrogen in the Milky Way and the measurement of the Doppler shift of various clouds of hydrogen gas used to determine the shape of the galaxy. Lyster is a 48-year employee of the Y-12 National Security Complex, where he works in the Plant Chemistry Laboratory. His specialty is electronic instrumentation. He has been constructing hydrogen-line radio telescope spectrometers for the past 35 years, and the instruments have been placed on virtually every continent on Earth. Sold mostly to universities and high schools, the spectrometers have sparked the careers of many present-day radio astronomers. ORION is a science and astronomy club centered in Oak Ridge that supports the Tamke-Allan Observatory in Kingston. The observatory is open on the first and third Saturdays of each month, weather permitting.
