Description: This photo, taken in 2018, shows the McMath-Pierce Solar Telescope building set against the backdrop of the Milky Way and a meteor (or shooting star) streaking across the sky. The McMath-Pierce facility is now embarking on a new mission to become the home of the NOIRLab Windows on the Universe Center for Astronomy Outreach, expected to open by early 2023.
