Astronomy for Grown-Ups: Infamous Misconceptions
Advertisement
Explore big questions in space science and the latest discoveries in the cosmos through this monthly planetarium series for adults, held on the first Wednesday of each month.
Wednesday, September 2 — Infamous Misconceptions
What causes the seasons? Is there gravity in space? Is the Sun really a gigantic star? Does the Moon pull the ocean to make the tides? Many of us absorbed lessons about space which, as it turns out, aren’t quite right. We’ll review the sometimes subtle, often surprising reality behind some common misconceptions. Feel free to come with your own questions, and we’ll examine those as well!
Recommended for ages 18+; 60-minute show plus Q&A. Advance ticket purchase is encouraged.
