It was a cold night.....in our underground hotel, made cozy by the extra blankets and thermostat.
Marcie Smith, NASA scientist, gave an exciting update on the Kepler project. She presented slides of the data along with photos of Kepler.
Today the group from Astronomy magazine and MWT Associates stopped for a camel caravan in the Sahara Desert. We passed the ravages of encroaching sand and disappearing palms. The camel driver was surprised when he learned we were from USA, smiled and took our cameras and photographed us.
Tozeur for the night in a beautiful hotel at the edge of the Sahara.
