Sharing the thrill of Gemini’s discoveries with our local communities in Hawai‘i and Chile reached another high point during the first half of March. The 10th anniversary of Journey Through the Universe week in Hawai‘i and the eighth celebration of AstroDay Chile in La Serena touched thousands of local students and residents, bringing everyone along for the excitement of our cosmic explorations.
