The type of research done at Centennial Observatory
TWIN FALLS, Idaho (KMVT/KSVT) —There is no shortage of events for the public to take part in at Centennial Observatory from their monthly star parties to their solar viewing session during the summer. There is another aspect that you may not have considered about the well-known building, and that is the research that is done there. “The main type of research we do here is what’s known as asteroid occultation, which is a really fancy way of saying we measure asteroids by timing how long they block the light of a star as they pass in front of it; and that gives us a way of determining their size, their shape, and their position in space,” Coordinator for Centennial Observatory Chris Anderson explained.
“Then & Now” Quilt exhibit at the Twin Falls Historical Society for a limited time
TWIN FALLS, Idaho (KMVT/KSVT) —There is no shortage of events happening at the Twin Falls Historical Society. For the second year in a row, the quilt show has returned to the museum. The theme for this year is the “Then & Now” quilt show. A part of this exhibit showcases not only the agricultural history of Southern Idaho but also the impact women had as well. “The product of the farmers is no longer here. It’s gone to people that have eaten the food all over the nation, but what we do have are things like quilts that have remained and tell the stories of the people that were here and what they were interested in doing, and what women did to contribute to the agricultural efforts of this community,” Board Member of the Twin Falls Historical Society Jane Anderson explained.
