AAS238 Workshop: Making the Most of AAS WorldWide Telescope
The AAS238 edition of our introductory WWT workshop will take place at 11:00 AM (US Eastern time) on Friday, June 4, using Zoom. Sign up when you register for the conference. There is a $25 registration fee.
This workshop is aimed at astronomy researchers and educators who would like to learn more about the AAS WorldWide Telescope (WWT) software. From the AAS238 program planner:
AAS WorldWide Telescope (WWT) is a free and open-source data visualization tool that runs right in your web browser. Use WWT inside Jupyter to explore imagery and data tables on the sky, or embed it on other websites to share your data with your colleagues, students, and the general public in a slick, intuitive interface. This interactive tutorial will introduce attendees to the WWT tool and its software ecosystem in the context of its applications to research, education, and broader impacts.
No prior WWT experience is necessary! Nor is any software installation — all activities will use cloud-based services. All you need is a laptop.
