Agenda

🕑: 06:00 PM - 08:30 PM
Movie Screening | Interstellar

Info: Directed by Christopher Nolan | Humanity has always looked to the stars, driven by curiosity and the need to explore. But what happens when survival itself depends on venturing beyond our own planet? Interstellar envisions a future where Earth becomes uninhabitable, forcing a desperate search for a new home. Ex-NASA pilot Joseph Cooper joins a team of researchers traveling through a wormhole to find a habitable planet, facing impossible choices that test human endurance and sacrifice. Rooted in real astrophysics, Interstellar explores the future of space travel, the search for new worlds, and the profound connection between science and our survival. Witness a breathtaking story that will leave you questioning our place in the universe—and what wonders lie beyond our solar system!


🕑: 08:30 PM - 09:00 PM
Q&A with Simon Steel

Info: Simon Steel is the Deputy Director of the Carl Sagan Center for Research at the SETI Institute and the Principal Investigator for the NASA Community College Network. With 25 years of experience in science education and a passion for making space science accessible, he has lectured at top universities and co-authored Touch the Invisible Sky, the first Braille book on multiwavelength astrophysics. His work spans research in extragalactic astronomy, teacher training, museum exhibit design, and multimedia education, making him a leading voice in bringing advanced space science to diverse audiences.


🕑: 08:30 PM - 09:00 PM
Q&A with Uma Gorti

Info: Uma Gorti joined the SETI Institute's Carl Sagan Center in 2008 as a Principal Investigator and is mainly interested in star and planet formation. She is currently working on understanding how planet-forming disks evolve, and is developing models that one day will be compared with future observations to be taken by the Herschel, SOFIA, JWST, ALMA and other telescopes. Such studies will help us understand the conditions under which planets form and the likelihood of planet formation, and hence life, in different star forming environments.
