Comments on: URSI Update #1 http://noisyastronomer.com/2009/01/06/ursi-update-1/ One astronomer's noise is another astronomer's data...

You rock!<br/><br/>Perhaps coolest of all the things Dr. Wootten talked to me about is the ALMA Deep Field experiment that'll be done when the array gets up & running! This will compliment the Hubble Deep Field very nicely, providing a higher resolution (20 times higher! Yowza!) and much deeper (read older!) penetration into the universe. <br/><br/>Where Hubble left off (at a Z of 2 or 3 IIRC) the ALMA Deep field picks up. The ALMA Deep Field will reach all the way back to the Epoch of Reionization itself! I expect you will have much fun with this instrument, Nicole, in the coming years!<br/>Richard Drumm The Astronomy Bum Thanks for the shout-out, Nicole! You rock!
