Join us on Monday, November 11, 2024, at 6:30 PM for our Environmental Book Club where we will discuss: "The Last Stargazers: The Enduring Story of Astronomy's VanishingExplorers" by Emily Levesque.
From Kirkus reviews- …She tells fun stories of scorpions in the dormitories and swarms of ladybugs plaguing the telescopes, but she also looks at the history of sexism at the observatory and the cultural friction that may erupt around the positioning of a particular telescope. Perhaps where Levesque shines brightest is in her descriptions of the “raw human appeal” that comes from experiencing celestial phenomena…Entertaining, ardent tales from an era of stargazing that may not last much longer.
We always have great discussions, and all are invited whether you have read the book or not.
Our meeting will be held at:
Fielder Museum
1616 W Abrams Str
Arlington, TX
This location is a very nice place to meet, and we are allowed to have food and beverages.
For questions, please contact Terry McIntire at [email protected]
