Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Astrophysical research facility located in Cambridge, Massachusetts with scientists engaged in a broad program of research in astronomy, astrophysics, earth and space sciences, and science education. http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/sao-home.html
Extractions: The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) is a "research institute" of the Smithsonian Institution headquartered in Cambridge, MA, where it is joined with the Harvard College Observatory (HCO) to form the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA). More than 300 scientists at the CfA are engaged in a broad program of research in astronomy, astrophysics, earth and space sciences, and science education. Because many of these research activities share Harvard and Smithsonian staff and resources, several of the "SAO" links at this website will take you to information posted on joint "CfA" pages. What's New at the CfA

Extractions: Physics and Astronomy Program An astrophysicist studies the nature and behaviour of our Universe, using all the techniques of modern physical sciences. Tackling something as big as the Universe requires the combined talents of a wide range of people, each skilled in a particular area. For example, those with a mathematical bent may apply general relativity to the study of black holes or cosmology. Those who enjoy computing may specialise in computer control of telescopes or numerical analysis of astronomical data. Others may build new instruments at the forefront of technology or may use existing ones to discover new facts about stars, nebulae and galaxies, and how they form or evolve. How Does One Become an Astrophysicist?
