No, but the engineers do! It takes almost 1.5hrs each way.

I mainly work in La Serena, with 5-night turnos at the telescope every so often. When I'm on nights, I stay at the summit dorm, since we're working 11-14 hours at a time.

There's little progress though. So I'm just wasting my time. Sadly enough. Their willingness to learn is limited, for some reason. As it can easily be seen. No telescope is needed..... :)

BTW: Have you seen Universe yet? If so, did you like it?..... :)

Universe.. like what? Just curious??
