Smarty Pints! Tree Care and Big Data Astronomy

Spring is coming, and with it the occasional appearance of that weird big blue cloud! On March 16 we’re looking towards the sky, and beyond, with talks on maple trees and care (timely!) and the search for life beyond Earth (never not timely!). See you at 6:30 in the taproom!

New wide field sky surveys, backed with powerful computational systems, allow us to start new and exciting ways of asking the age old question: Are we alone?

Kick back, look up, and ponder the trees and the stars (but recline after Smarty Pints, we need space for you to sit!)
