About Me

"Astronomy? Impossible to understand and madness to investigate." -Sophocles, c. 420 BCE

Greetings, earthlings! I come in peace!

I'm Nia Moreno, and I'm an junior at Walter Payton College Prep. I'm really excited to be a part of the C-WAYS Research Team! I've always been extremely interested in science and research, so this project is an amazing opportunity for me!

A view of Payton from Google Maps. The school is actually a lot prettier...

See! I told you!

When I'm not spending my time stargazing, I enjoy traveling, taking pictures, writing and listening to music, and volunteering at the Animal Welfare League.

One of my favorite images of outer space - this gorgeous ultraviolet image was recorded by NASA's Swift Satellite and is the highest resolution image ever made of the Andromeda Galaxy at ultraviolet wavelengths.
