Hello, fellow Navigators! Pull up a chair next to the campfire for a quick mid-stream check-in. My day job has been an absolute mountain of work this week, so I am letting our next full-length episode drift just a tiny bit further down the stream to get the proper editing and polish it deserves, launching next Tuesday morning instead.This quick teaser gives you a behind-the-scenes preview of my the next episode of my special series, Enchanted Frequencies, where we explore the universe through radio waves and invisible cosmic signals. And through my visit to the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico!We'll look at the blue-collar heart of astronomy with Shane Baca, the facilities manager at the Very Large Array. Shane manages a crew of 65 mechanics, rail workers, and fabricators who roll up their sleeves to move massive 240-ton telescope dishes across the desert. I've even included a brief clip of our conversation to whet you appetite.Remember that the Deep-Sky Hotline is always open at 855-DEEP-SKY (855-333-7759) if you want to leave a question or share your own stargazing rituals. If you want to join the crew, unlock our private Discord channels, and claim one of the few remaining limited-edition Enchanted Frequencies mission stickers, head over to astropotamus.com/support.Until the next bend in the River, clear skies, and I will see you in the dark!
