My name is Andrew McHaty and I'm a 19-year-old astrophotographer based in Northern Virginia. I'm currently a second-year student studying Astrophysics and Physics at the University of California, Berkeley. Using my telescope, I explore and photograph the cosmos, sharing my research and findings along the way. My primary research focus is on the habitability of exoplanets and life outside our solar system. I am actively pursuing research within this field and working towards doing research in Solid-State Physics, specifically superconductivity.
