For millennia, humanity has looked up at countless tiny points of light in our night sky – and wondered. What are the stars, and how did they get there? How far away are they, how big are they, why do they shine? In the last few centuries, astronomers have learned a great deal about the lives of stars – how they form, live, and die. What remarkable discoveries have been made about the properties of stars? Join us on a journey of discovery about the most fundamental and numerous objects in the universe - the stars. Joe DalSanto is a lifelong amateur astronomer who has spent countless nights observing with telescopes up to 30” aperture from numerous locations throughout the US. He is Chair of the STEM Department and Professor of Astronomy at the College of DuPage and is the author of three published textbooks for their astronomy courses on astronomy including “Observational Astronomy for Undergraduates”. He never tires of simply viewing the sky and marveling at how much we have learned about our universe.We will be meeting a Grace United Methodist Church in Room 254.
