National Solar Observatory (3234)

Bringing my 'awe' back down to earth (see first picture about observatory), one of the few people I saw while wandering around the observatory was a young man (probably a grad student from one of the affiliated universities), walking towards this telescope, listening to his iPod, and looking bored. Probably just trudging off to another boring day of recording data on solar activity.

Best viewed as part of New Mexico set.
