Thanks to Justin Richmond-Decker and Mike Holstine at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in Green Bank for inviting me over and letting us film at the Telescope on one of their maintenance days! For more about the Green Bank Observatory: https://science.nrao.edu/facilities/gbt
Want a tour? You can! (Although you won't be allowed up the telescope!) https://greenbankobservatory.org/visit/
