On a clear night you can see thousands of stars with your naked eye, but there are hundreds of billions of stars in our Milky Way Galaxy, which is merely one of hundreds of billions of galaxies in the observable Universe. Stars are so far away that nearly all are observed only as unresolved points of light. This talk will explore how we understand stars – their temperatures, sizes, and more – despite this limitation.Free tickets will be available to reserve at 8:00 AM CT on Friday 11/27.
Shows are recommended for engaged grade school students through adults. Shows are strongly discouraged for ages 2 and under. Please be prepared to turn off phones and smartwatches, remove lighted shoes, etc., so that all participants may enjoy the show in its intended dark, quiet environment. Please arrive 5 minutes before your show, or ticket reservations may be released to allow for walk-in attendees.
In conjunction with the show, the UNK Astronomy Club will hold telescope observingoutside of Bruner Hall of Science @ 8:00 PM(weather permitting).
