As we enter the holiday season, we (usually) start thinking about the joy and frustration of traveling. ✈️🎄🎉 #happyholidays2020

During Mr. Vanderbilt’s time, visiting relatives or a new part of the world was even more difficult than today, and you needed money to even afford it. Of course, if you were Mr. Vanderbilt, all you had to do was simply take your own boat! 🚢💰

Next week, the Vanderbilt Museum will be offering its newest online exhibit, A Ship for Seven Seas. Join us as we explore the Alva, Mr. Vanderbilt’s 264-foot motor yacht, and see how the ship combined luxury with state-of-the-art technology as it traveled around the world in search of new specimens for the museum! 🌊🐠🧜‍♀️ #vanderbiltmuseum

🔭 🔭 🔭 #OnThisDay #OnThisDayInHistory in 1985, you could’ve went to the most perfect place in town to try and catch a glimpse of #halleyscomet in the skies! According to this article from the #dailynews our beautiful @vanderbiltmuseum was nationally recognized as one of the top 12 in the nation and it was THE ONLY major observatory in the New York metro area to allow visitors access to its telescope facilities to view the comet! And if you missed the comet back then, don’t worry, you just have to wait until 2061 to try and catch it again! 💫 💫 💫

After just over 57 years of service, the NSF annou

After just over 57 years of service, the NSF announced on November 19th that the radio telescope at Arecibo Observatory will be decommissioned and dismantled. For the majority of the Observatory's existence, its radio telescope was the largest single-aperture telescope in the world with a diameter of 305 meters (1000 feet). The dish of the telescope was built into a naturally formed depression in the ground in Arecibo, Puerto Rico. Suspended 450 feet above the dish is a 900 ton platform holding research instruments. Two of the cables supporting this platform snapped and dealt considerable damage to the dish below. After assessing the situation, it was deemed too dangerous to be repaired.

Arecibo Observatory has made profound contributions to the field of radio astronomy. Researchers have used the facility to study pulsars and provided early evidence for the existence of neutron stars. The discovery of a binary pulsar system at Arecibo confirmed Einstein's prediction of the existence of gravitational waves according to his theory of General Relativity. Gravitational waves were later directly observed by LIGO. The first exoplanets ever discovered were found orbiting a pulsar which was discovered at Arecibo. NASA's Near Earth Object Observations program depended on Arecibo to measure the size, shape, and exact orbits of near-Earth asteroids. Arecibo's planetary radar has mapped the structure of solar system objects including lake-like structures on Saturn's moon, Titan. Arecibo has even been used to study Earth's ionosphere - a highly ionized layer of Earth's atmosphere. The Observatory was also home to the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project which listened for radio signals that could have come from alien civilizations.

While the radio telescope will no longer be operational, NSF is doing what it can to save as much of the observatory's infrastructure and equipment as possible for future use. Thank you to this inspiring observatory!
