Astronomy

  

· During Christmas break from the University of Maryland, I designed and built a radio telescope in my backyard. 

· I always had a passion for Astronomy, so during Christmas, I flew home from college and designed and made a parabolic reflector I used for radio Astronomy in my backyard in Georgia. 

· Using Trigonometric functions, I graphed the parabola and focal point for the dish and plotted the points using small nails on a plywood sheet. 

· I used this to guide the antenna elements to the right parabolic shape. 

· I utilized a metal ring for the central hub, attaching the curved antenna elements circumferentially with wire rings of increasing size from the main point of the telescope.

· I bolted this through a tree my cousin helped me cut down and installed an altitude adjustment I designed and built. 

· I could control the altitude of the dish to capture everything at that celestial coordinate that traversed the meridian daily. 

· I pointed the radio telescope at the sun, the most powerful radio source in our sky. 

· I got a 200mV deflection on my analog multi-meter, validation that the project succeeded.
