[Cosmic-Explorations] Johnson Space Center Astronomy Society Meeting this Friday!

[Shaner, Andrew]

Johnson Space Center Astronomy Society Meeting

Dr. Dan McDonald, physicist from University of Houston, will join us for the July JSCAS meeting this Friday, July 11th.  His topic is "Gravity Waves and The Big Bang".  Dr. McDonald has the entertaining capability to explain particle physics to a general audience.

We'll also have several other short presentations including the July's Sky Observing Targets "What's Up This Month?" with suggestions for beginner observers, the always-intriguing "Astro Oddities", dates for our upcoming fun and public Star Parties (which always need your help), some informative Member's Minutes, and the novice Q & A Session.

JSCAS is open to anyone who wants to learn about astronomy and membership is FREE!  After joining, you'll have access to our Loaner Telescopes and our amazing Astronomy DVD Library with 100's of choices to learn from (from Astronomy Magazine, NASA, Discovery, etc.).  Our meetings are held on the 2nd Friday of each month at 7:30 pm in the lecture hall of the USRA Bldg. (3600 Bay Area Blvd. at Middlebrook Dr.)  Pizza and refreshments follow at Double-Daves on Bay Area Blvd.  For more info, see our website at jscas.net

Note to all those who have borrowed DVDs from the JSCAS Media Library:  PLEASE BRING THEM BACK AT THE BEGINNING & DURING THE BREAK AT THIS MEETING.  YES, you can check them out again...or acquire new ones!
