Inferometer Telescope and Pictures of Altair

This article from the National Science Foundation is a real winner. It shows the Inferometer Telescope at the University of Michigan, explains how the telescope works and explains how they captured images of Altair, a sun similar to our own that is nearly 15 light years away.
