hi, and welcome - we're so glad you’re here 🤍
my name is Kaitlyn, and I’ll be your resident astronomer behind the images you see throughout this site. i’m lucky to be partnered with my friend and coworker Tim, whose observatory we use to collect much of the data that you will see.
i hold a Bachelor of Science in Physics with an emphasis in astronomy, and I’m currently working toward my Master’s degree in Astrophysics. By day, I operate telescopes for the government, tracking satellites and spacecraft - but this print club project is very much a labor of love.
Signals From Space was created to share our fascination with the universe in a way that feels welcoming and human. there’s a common idea that you need to be a genius to appreciate or understand space, and we couldn’t disagree more. our goal is to break down that barrier and invite everyone in - no prerequisites, no pressure. Just curiosity, wonder, and a shared love for the cosmos.
looking forward to sharing this experience with you all !
