Cardiologist Mario Motta’s Planetary Telescope From Karen Pischke

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hi Joey.

I LOVE E.J’s. art featured in today’s (2/18) blog! FANTASTIC piece E.J.! Cape Ann is especially GREAT for celestial viewing and one of the many things I LOVE about Cape Ann. Cardiologist Mario Motta M.D. chose Cape Ann as the site for his planetary telescope! (See- http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2008/01/31/eyes_on_the_skies/.) This month has been especially beautiful, with many bright planets visible with the naked eye. I hear Mercury will be most visible starting Feb 20 – beginning of March.

Imagine that?  That’s a serious telescope, right here in G-Town!

  1. Thanks Karen. That is so cool. I love the horse nebula and it would be amazing to actually be able to see it through a telescope from right here in Gloucester. It never ceases to amaze me the things that go on right here in our backyard.
