On Wednesday afternoon, September 16th, Benedict XVI inaugurated the new premises of the Specola Vaticana, the Vatican Observatory.

In the interview, Brother Guy Consolmagno discusses The Heavens Proclaim and his work for the Vatican Observatory. I may not be able to pronounce his name, but we had a lot of fun talking.

Reaching for the Heavens: Vatican Observatory - George V. Coyne, S.J.

On June 15th, Fr. George Coyne appeared on Tucson's local radio station KJLL.

Fathers Richard Boyle and William Stoeger each celebrate 50 years as Jesuits in 2011, and Father George Coyne celebrates his 60th!

Since the very first design phases, remote observing has been one of our goals for VATT. This would allow the telescope to be operated by an off-site user, for example, someone in our offices in Castel Gandolfo, Italy.

The University of Arizona is home to one of the world's largest telescopes and astronomers work very closely with the Vatican.

High above the Southern Arizona desert two white domes peek out of Pinaleno Mountains near Safford. The two domes are observatories, one is run by the Vatican, and the University of Arizona operates the larger telescope.

We are pleased to announce that VATTSpec had its "first light" tonight! While more work remains to be done fine-tuning the alignment and calibrating the instrument, this represents a major milestone in bringing VATTSpec on-line for scientific operation.
