Tammey Lindblom is the director of Right Steps Child Development Center, and oversees seven child care centers in the Lafayette area. Since the pandemic began, every day presents a challenge they’ve never encountered before.
“I was actually on the phone with a director,” she said. “A grandma was exposed to her grandchildren, who work in the center. What do we do? So it s like, OK, let s think about this one.”
Lindblom counts herself lucky for avoiding permanent closure for any facilities. Since the start of the pandemic, she’s had to temporarily close one center due to COVID-19 exposure just two times. After those closures, she and her staff improved social distancing measures by restricting teachers and students to certain classrooms. Now if someone is exposed, they’re able to quarantine a single classroom instead of a whole center.

TESS reveals triple-binary eclipsing star system & Sun-like star with extremely close exoplanets
January 29, 2021
The first-discovered triple-binary sextuple star system and a Sun-like star with five exoplanets orbiting within the distance of Mercury are just two recent examples of the extraordinary systems being investigated and discovered by scientist using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, or TESS.
The joint NASA-Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) mission is the cornerstone of two recently presented discoveries that characterize two tantalizing systems and their benefit to understanding stellar system formation.
A sextuplly-eclipsing sextuple system
Finding a system with six stars is rare to begin with. Finding such a system with three sets of binaries, all of which are eclipsing binaries when viewed from Earth is even more rare.
