Asteroids: Names and Notable Discoveries

This week on Roid Rage, we’re talking asteroids. Specifically, how do we see 'em? Our guest Al Conrad has decades of experience working with some of the most powerful observatories on Earth, and shares stories from behind the lens: what makes the Large Binocular Telescope Observatory (LBTO) so unique, how astronomers actually use these tools to track asteroids, and why observation is just as much an art as it is science. From quirky telescope moments to lessons on precision, this one zooms in on the details that matter.
