The GTN provides recommendations and advice for conducting your own authentic research in astronomy using contemporary telescope systems and detectors. Robotic telescope systems are increasingly available across the internet, many of which the GTN is involved. By following these tools and tips you can make meaningful observations of the most ground breaking discoveries, that the most sophisticated observatories are working on at this very moment. You may even eventually be able to publish your results! Your authentic research may also lead you to explore real NASA data from famous observatories orbiting in space such as Hubble Space Telescope (HST), Spitzer Telescope, Wide Infrared Survey Explore (WISE) Telescope, Chandra X-Ray Telescope, and 2MASS.
