    Dr. Hall will take us on a tour of the most exciting telescopes in use today, under construction and being planned. The tour will cover the modern tools of the trade, a brief review of the spectacular results being realized by the new James Webb space telescope and the exciting plans for new ground-based telescopes like the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) under construction in Chile.

    A Flagstaff resident for more than 20 years, Dr. Hall has served as Director of Lowell Observatory since June 2010. He joined the staff at Lowell in 1992 as a postdoctoral research fellow. He received a B. A. in Physics in 1986 from Johns Hopkins and a Ph.D. in Astronomy and Astrophysics in 1991 from Penn State. His research at Lowell has focused on solar and stellar activity cycles, with the goal of lending an astronomical perspective to solar influences on terrestrial climate.
