Event

 

Retired Physics Professor, Mike Stafford, is returning to the observatory at 7:30 tonight for an exciting talk called “The Future of Space Flight.” Mike will kick things off with a quick trip through the fascinating history of space flight. He’ll then dive into the near future of space travel before letting imaginations soar into some wild speculation about exploring other planets and traveling to distant stars! True to Mike’s style, he’ll weave in some easy-to-understand physics lessons along the way – all done painlessly, with no complicated math involved.
