Jason Shinn
Jason Shinn has been an amateur astronomer for more than 19 years. An active member of the Astronomy Club of Akron, he has recently joined the Society of Amateur Radio Astronomers (SARA) and is an active participant in the NASA Radio Jove Project as well as serving as a planetarium director and presenter for the Hoover Price Planetarium. He frequently informs other radio astronomers when activity is going on, and provides accurate data and information. The RadioJove listening project is fascinating, and Jason plans on bringing a dipole antenna to set up during his visit so we may monitor the solar continuum and map the radio frequency of the Milky Way. If you've ever dreamed of being able to "beat" cloudy skies, then you'll find this brand of astronomy particularly interesting. Jason will also be providing us with a wonderful program, as well as audio and visual files of Jupiter emissions.
Jason has been with the Hidden Hollow Star Party for the last 3 years and his programs just keep getting more interesting! Be sure to join us for something you'll never forget. His programs are beyond compare and it will open a whole new world of astronomy - via radio....
Now that's something we can "listen" too!
