KEYNOTE ADDRESS
Professor Richard Kron, the current director of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, has agreed to deliver the Keynote Address at the Macintosh Astronomy Workshop. Professor Kron will describe the survey and recent results. The Sloan Digital Sky Survey is the most ambitious astronomical survey project ever undertaken. The survey will map in detail one-quarter of the entire sky, determining the positions and absolute brightnesses of more than 100 million celestial objects. It will also measure the distances to more than a million galaxies and quasars. The Apache Point Observatory, site of the SDSS telescopes, is operated by the Astrophysical Research Consortium (ARC).
