“As a child fishing with my dad on the lake, I would stare up at the Dome and wonder what that magnificent telescope might be seeing and discovering. Carl Sagan’s show Cosmos continued my fascination with the billions of stars and galaxies. He stated, “The cosmos is within us. We are made of star stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.” I am honored and excited to be a small part of realizing Yerkes mission of science and the arts for the next little girl with her dad so she can discover she, too, is star stuff.”
