SUMMARY:Science Lecture Series: Dr. Jennifer Page
DESCRIPTION:Aquatic chemical signaling: How understanding signals in\nthe sea helps us address interdisciplinary challenges\n\nThursday\, April 5 at 7:00 pm \n\nThe chemical signals exchanged by aquatic organisms influence a wide variety of behaviors\nfrom predator-prey interactions to mating and habitat choice. Understanding chemical signaling\ncan help us more deeply understand the ecology and evolution of biological systems and can\nalso help us address a variety of challenges from environmental management and conservation\nto human health issues. Come explore how discoveries in aquatic chemical signaling are\nhelping us engineer solutions to interdisciplinary problems using everything from the chemicals\nthemselves to chemical-sensing robots. \n  \n  \n\nDr. Jennifer Page is the Director of Education at the Hurricane Island Center for Science and\nLeadership\, a non-profit in midcoast Maine that integrates science education\, applied research\,\nand leadership development. She graduated from the University of Maine with a B.S. in Marine\nScience and earned her Ph.D. in Biology at the Georgia Institute of Technology within the NSF\nIGERT program Signals in the Sea. She then returned to UMaine as a Postdoctoral Research\nAssociate in the School of Marine Sciences before joining the faculty of Bangor High School.\nJenn helped develop Bangor High’s STEM Academy and became even more passionate about\nbringing authentic research experiences and place-based curriculum to students. \n  \n \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 are available online at http://astro.umaine.edu\, by calling 581-1341\, or at the box office. \n

SUMMARY:Mayan Archaeoastronomy: Observers of the Universe
DESCRIPTION:The night is an eye\, both dark and bright!  It forces us to look up and ask ourselves questions about our place in the Cosmos\, our origins\, and what is beyond the horizon.  Using spectacular visuals and stunning sound\, audiences tour six ancient Mayan temples: San Gervasio\, Chichen Itzá\, Uxmal\, Edzna\, Palenque\, and Bonampak. Along the way they dive into Mayan knowledge of the sky exploring the movement of the Sun\, the Moon and Venus. Find Balam the Jaguar constellation and explore how the Mayan’s created a calendar more accurate than the one we use in modern times. Journey back in time to explore how The Mayan’s used the sky to understand their world and their place in it! \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12.

SUMMARY:Mayan Archaeoastronomy: Observers of the Universe
DESCRIPTION:The night is an eye\, both dark and bright!  It forces us to look up and ask ourselves questions about our place in the Cosmos\, our origins\, and what is beyond the horizon.  Using spectacular visuals and stunning sound\, audiences tour six ancient Mayan temples: San Gervasio\, Chichen Itzá\, Uxmal\, Edzna\, Palenque\, and Bonampak. Along the way they dive into Mayan knowledge of the sky exploring the movement of the Sun\, the Moon and Venus. Find Balam the Jaguar constellation and explore how the Mayan’s created a calendar more accurate than the one we use in modern times. Journey back in time to explore how The Mayan’s used the sky to understand their world and their place in it! \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.
