Description
Based on a small sample research project, we found out that even though the Southern African Large Telescope(SALT) has been in Sutherland for 20 years, some community members in Sutherland have a keen interest to know more about what really happens behind the scenes when astronomers observe. During this talk, I shall present how we conducted the first contact, with whom,the feedback from the group and what they expect next year. We hope that our approach might be useful to the community and that we can get pointers on how to measure impact.
