Kings of Jelm Mountain

Conrad and Andrew, two engineers from the University of Wyoming, are the only on-call crew for one of highest elevated infrared observatories in the country. The Wyoming Infrared Observatory is located on top of Jelm mountain just south of Laramie, Wyo. Every few days, Conrad and Andrew must commute to the top of the mountain to perform routine liquid nitrogen swaps and other maintenance on the 50-year-old telescope. Even though their vast difference in age, their combined wisdom and skill makes them quite a team when faced with all the adversities associated with their work.
