Welcome to BackFocus, a podcast exploring space and astronomy: the night sky, the gear, the science, and the people who look up. Each episode we dig into what is happening overhead, talk to people doing remarkable things in the hobby and the field, and point listeners toward communities where they can connect. The name is a nod to the focus point behind the lens -- the place where the light finally comes together. That is what we want this show to be for the astronomy community. And we hope that you will look up and discover the universe with us.
