SUMMARY:Science Lecture Series: Dr. Scott Randall
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Scott Randall\nBlack Holes\, Exploding Stars\, and Clusters of Galaxies:\n20 Years of NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory\n\n\n\nThursday\, October 10 at 7:00 pm \n\n\n\nLaunched in 1999\, Chandra is one of NASA’s four “Great Observatories”\, a series of satellites designed to study the sky over a broad range in wavelengths\, from infrared to gamma rays.  20 years later\, Chandra is still providing the sharpest look ever at the X-ray universe. Chandra’s unprecedented observing capabilities have allowed scientific breakthroughs and important contributions on everything from supermassive black holes\, to exploding stars\, to the environments of alien worlds\, and to the largest bound objects in the universe\, clusters of galaxies.  In this talk we will discuss some of Chandra’s most notable research highlights from the past two decades\, and take a tour of some of the many breathtaking astronomical images it has provided. \n     \nScott Randall received his PhD in astronomy from the University of Virginia in 2005.  He then did a postdoc at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge\, MA\, before moving to the Chandra Mission Planning Science Operations Team at the same institution in 2007. Scott’s research interests include X-ray and high-energy astrophysics\, AGN feedback\, galaxy clusters\, large scale structure and cosmology\, and dark matter. He currently splits his time between helping to operate NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory\, mentoring graduate students and postdocs\, and doing research with his collaborators from around the world. \n \nThe Science Lecture Series at Emera Astronomy Center will take place the second Thursday of each month and is a partnership project with the Maine Science Festival and will feature research from a variety of science disciplines from around our state and use the digital planetarium to visualize these discoveries in a new dramatic and immersive way. \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12. Click here to view our calendar. \nTickets are available online at http://astro.umaine.edu\, by calling 581-1341\, or at the box office.

SUMMARY:Science Lecture Series: Dr. Emanuele Berti
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Emanuele Berti\nA New Dawn: Gravitational-wave Observations from Earth and in Space\n\n\n\nThursday\, November 14 at 7:00 pm \n\n\n\nThe observation of gravitational waves by the LIGO/Virgo marked the dawn of a new era in astronomy. The planned space-based detector LISA will further this vision by opening a new observational window into our universe. The gravitational radiation emitted by objects encode important information about their formation mechanism. Explore how Earth- and space-based detectors will advance our understanding of the formation and evolution of numerous astronomical objects. Look at potential “smoking guns” of new physics in gravitational-wave detectors\, and the theoretical and observational challenges associated with their search. \n     \nDr. Emanuele Berti is a theoretical physicist who specializes in gravitational physics and gravitational-wave astronomy. His interests include black holes\, neutron stars\, and gravitational-waves. He has a Ph.D. from the University of Rome “La Sapienza” and held postdoctoral positions at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki\, the Institut d’Astrophysique de Paris\, and JPL/Caltech. He currently is a professor at Johns Hopkins University and a member of NASA’s U.S. LISA Study Team. \n \nThe Science Lecture Series at Emera Astronomy Center will take place the second Thursday of each month and is a partnership project with the Maine Science Festival and will feature research from a variety of science disciplines from around our state and use the digital planetarium to visualize these discoveries in a new dramatic and immersive way. \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12. Click here to view our calendar. \nTickets are available online at http://astro.umaine.edu\, by calling 581-1341\, or at the box office.

SUMMARY:Polaris: Mystery of the Polar Night
DESCRIPTION:A traveling penguin from the South Pole and a funny polar bear from the North pole meet on arctic sea ice.  They become friends observing the night sky together and wondering why night is so long at the poles of the Earth. This mystery leads them on a scientific adventure by building an improvised spaceship to travel around the Earth to learn about seasons\, visit Mars and Saturn to learn about ice in the solar system and how planets have similarities and differences which make them unique. \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12. Click here to view our calendar. \nTickets may be purchased online\, by phone at 207.581.1341\, or at our ticket box office prior to the show.

SUMMARY:Einstein's Gravity Playlist
DESCRIPTION:What are gravitational waves?  How are these ripples in space-time created?  Albert Einstein predicted there existence in 1916\, and a century later\, scientists detected these waves using incredibly precise laser technology here on Earth.  See the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and Lucia\, a PhD student in physics\, on an exploration of gravitational waves and their importance in helping understand the universe. \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12.
