0:00.0 | Understanding the human body is a team effort. That's where the Yachtel group comes in. |
0:05.8 | Researchers at Yachtolt have been delving into the secrets of probiotics for 90 years. |
0:11.0 | Yacold also partners with nature portfolio to advance gut microbiome science through the global grants for gut health, an investigator-led research program. |
0:19.6 | To learn more about Yachtolt, visit yawcult.co. |
0:22.7 | .jp. That's Y-A-K-U-L-T.C-O.J-P. When it comes to a guide for your gut, count on Yacult. |
0:34.3 | On April 8th, millions and millions of people across North America got to glimpse a total solar eclipse. |
0:41.1 | If that brief foray into backyard astronomy left you hungry for more, never fear. |
0:45.9 | We're here to feed your telescope fervor. |
0:48.6 | This is Science Quickly, and I'm Clara Moskowitz. |
0:52.0 | Here to talk to us about her own adventures in astrophotography and offer |
0:56.2 | tips and tricks for new amateur astronomers is Dr. Chanda Prescott Weinstein, an associate professor |
1:02.0 | of physics at the University of New Hampshire. |
1:07.7 | Hi Chanda, thanks so much for being here with us today. I'm excited to be here. So you are a |
1:13.9 | professional astrophysicist, but you also recently became an amateur astronomer. How does that work? |
1:20.8 | I don't know if I fall in the category of astrophysicist in a very clear way. I do particle physics |
1:25.9 | of dark matter, and I definitely work at the interface |
1:28.3 | of the two. But the interesting thing is I have an undergraduate degree in physics and astronomy and a |
1:33.2 | master's degree in astronomy, PhD in physics, and none of that involves getting any training |
1:39.1 | and actually working with the kind of telescope you might put in your backyard. I think a lot of people would be really shocked to hear that. |
1:46.8 | Now that I've started to get some facility with using a telescope, and specifically I've |
1:52.4 | been doing astrophotographies, I actually think it's kind of weird that we're not at some |
1:57.0 | point required to learn something about this. |
