Humble Hubble Team 18 – Evan Foote Abstract The proposed project is a self-aiming telescope. This telescope will obtain its global position and the local time via GPS. It will then automatically orient itself to point at a user selected target (star) using a variety of onboard sensors. Background: http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/1302/ngc1763_lake_1600.jpg
