The 2019 Detroit MakerFaire was held at the Henry Ford on July 27-28. This was the second MakerFaire we have attended. Marty Kunz, Ken Redcap, Jim Shedlowsky, and Tom Hagen manned our tent located directly across from the clock tower on the front lawn of the museum. Included in our display were:

• Solar White Light Telescope
• 1.42 GHz horn antenna (pictured) for detecting the neutral hydrogen 21 cm line from the Milky Way
• Fresnel lens for using the sun’s energy to burn pieces of wood and asphalt
• Adafruit Circuit Playground Express development boards that MHAS volunteers use to teach Python classes to children at the Rochester Hills Public Library
