Few get to work with the Hubble Space Telescope.
But Gerardo Vazquez an astrophysicist at Salisbury University got a chance of a lifetime.
The Salisbury Daily Times reports that six years ago one of his ideas got the okay from the scientific committee that oversees the telescope.
And Vazquez even got a chance to work the telescope’s space arm for several years as he labored on his doctorate.
He told the Daily Times that he has been allowed to work on figuring out why the cores of some galaxies are brighter than others.
The study has not yet been finished.
