Our teacher training program HOYS-LCO5 is slowly coming to an end. This year 12 teachers with just over 100 pupils from 9 countries signed up to learn how to observe with the LCO telescope network, the science of HOYS and doing some small research projects with our data. Like last year, we did run a picture competition. Participating pupils were tasked to create colour images of HOYS targets taken with the 0.4m LCO telescope network either by themselves or other participants in the project. This was to be accompanied by a short descriptive text about the image.
Our team of HOYS advisors voted on all the entries and selected a winner. The person receives two hours of observing time at the 0.4m LCO telescope network to observe anything they like. We hope to report on the results of these at a later stage. All participant will receive a certificate. Well done everyone! Congratulations!
Winning Entry:
Sam Crofts (Teacher: Dr Gaby Roch), Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys, Canterbury, UK
