From August 2007 to August 2008 I was on sabbatical traveling the national park system exploring the links between astronomy and the parks. Read the blog of my adventures (Stars Above, Earth Below) hosted by The Planetary Society.

Here is the public talk (Powerpoint) I gave on the Milky Way and light pollution in the national parks. In addition, here is the public talk (Powerpoint) I gave that describes the world of astronomy on display within the parks as seen through my photography. This is the version of the talk I gave at Yellowstone National Park in February 2008.
