SUMMARY:Science Lecture Series: Dr. Ali Abedi
DESCRIPTION:Wireless Leak Detection for International Space Station\nThursday\, March 2nd at 7:00 pm \nHow do we detect air leaks in space?  Air leaks in pressurized structures such as space habitats due to micrometeorite impacts or structural aging and failure are inevitable. Due to the large pressure differential between interior of the module and the vacuum of space outside\, escaping air emits an ultrasonic wave that may be detected using ultrasonic sensors. This presentation explores the hardware\, software\, and numerous challenges for localizing leaks using ultrasonic sensors.  Considerations for a standalone device with its own battery power source\, onboard processing\, crew interfaces\, signal- conditioning circuitry\, and a custom 3-D printed box are discussed in this presentation. Three devices were built\, flight certified and scheduled to deploy to the International Space Station for data collection in 2017. This project was funded through a three-year NASA EPSCoR grant in collaboration with the Office of ISS Technology Demonstration Programs. \n  \nDr. Ali Abedi received his Ph.D in Electrical and Computer Engineering from University of Waterloo in 2004. He joined the University of Maine\, Orono in 2005\, where he is currently Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Director of Center for Undergraduate Research.  He was a faculty fellow at NASA MSFC during summer of 2016\, visiting Associate Professor at the University of Maryland\, College Park\, MD and Guest Researcher at NIST in 2012 and adjunct Professor at Queen’s University\, Kingston\, Canada in 2004. Dr. Abedi served as Principal Investigator on several NASA\, US Army\, and NSF funded projects including Wireless Sensing of Lunar Habitat and Leak Detection for International Space Station\, which are featured on Phys.org\, NSF Science360\, Promise of Tomorrow Radio show\, and Discovery Channel Canada.  He has received numerous awards and recognitions from Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada\, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science\, Canadian Space Agency\, NASA\, and IEEE and has published over 90 papers. He is co-founder of two start-up companies and co-inventor of Wireless Sensors for Brain Injury Detection with Prof. Hayes. \n \nThe Science Lecture Series at Emera Astronomy Center will take place the first Thursdays 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 may be purchased online\, by phone at 207.581.1341\, or at our ticket box office prior to the show.

SUMMARY:Asteroid: Mission Extreme
DESCRIPTION:Asteroid: Mission Extreme takes audiences on an epic journey to discover how asteroids are both a danger and an opportunity. The danger lies in the possibility of a cataclysmic collision with Earth; the opportunity is the fascinating idea that asteroids could be stepping stones to other worlds – veritable way stations in space – enabling us to cross the Solar System. \nThe challenges are enormous\, but a mission so extreme could ultimately lead us to protect our planet and inhabit others. \nExplore what it would take for astronauts to reach an asteroid and how such an adventure could benefit humankind. \nTrailer \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12.

SUMMARY:Sesame Street: One World\, One Sky
DESCRIPTION:Explore the night sky with your favorite friends from Sesame Street in One World\, One Sky: Big Bird’s Adventure. Follow along with Big Bird\, Elmo and their friend from China\, Hu Hu Zhu\, as they take an imaginary trip from Sesame Street to the moon\, where they discover how different it is from Earth. They explore the day and night sky\, learn about the Big Dipper\, the North Star\, the Sun and the Moon.  Along the way\, they learn how the sky we see is shared by many people around the world. Children attending the show can interact as they watch\, drawing constellations and counting the time it takes the sun to set. \nTrailer \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12.

SUMMARY:Dynamic Earth
DESCRIPTION:Explore the inner workings of Earth’s climate system with visualizations based on satellite monitoring data and advanced supercomputer simulations. This exciting program follows a trail of energy that flows from the Sun into the interlocking systems that shape our climate: the atmosphere\, oceans\, and the biosphere. Audiences will ride along on swirling ocean and wind currents\, dive into the heart of a monster hurricane\, come face-to-face with sharks and gigantic whales\, and fly into roiling volcanoes. We explore the relationship between Earth and the Sun\, life and the carbon cycle\, Earth’s climate control system\, and how human activities are changing our planet. Come learn how dynamic planet Earth really is! \nTrailer \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12.

SUMMARY:Asteroid: Mission Extreme
DESCRIPTION:Asteroid: Mission Extreme takes audiences on an epic journey to discover how asteroids are both a danger and an opportunity. The danger lies in the possibility of a cataclysmic collision with Earth; the opportunity is the fascinating idea that asteroids could be stepping stones to other worlds – veritable way stations in space – enabling us to cross the Solar System. \nThe challenges are enormous\, but a mission so extreme could ultimately lead us to protect our planet and inhabit others. \nExplore what it would take for astronauts to reach an asteroid and how such an adventure could benefit humankind. \nTrailer \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.
