摘要:The Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope Network (LCOGT1) has telescopes in locations around the globe that are used daily by scientists and by the general public. In a new LCOGT outreach initiative called Show Me Stars, celebrities were chosen as guest hosts for a series of Twitter-based observing events using a 2-metre robotic telescope. The celebrities made tweets throughout their one-hour online observing sessions using the hashtag “#ShowMeStars”, with the aim of engaging large pools of Twitter followers in astronomy.
