Universe Laboratory

Welcome to the Universe Lab.

Using the Go Observing tool, registered schools can use the robotic Liverpool Telescope to request their very own observations.

However some projects are designed for more than one school to undertake, so we have also created the Universe Laboratory to keep all these projects in the one place.

By scheduling the Liverpool Telescope to follow a range of observational programmes, teachers will be able to visit the Universe Lab. with their students and conduct some very exciting science.

Such projects could involve looking for planets around distant stars, monitoring the aftermath of massive explosions in distant galaxies or even searching for asteroids that might pass a little too close for comfort a few years down the line.
