Madison Science Pub - January 31

Dr. John Everett from the UW Department of Astronomy will discuss how our Milky Way Galaxy and other galaxies work: how do they form stars, and why do they have the shapes they do. Other topics may include how central supermassive black holes fit into the picture, and how black holes have gone from being speculation to seeming nearly ubiquitous in the Universe.

And of course they'll be lively discussion and questions throughout, so bring all those weird questions about astronomy you've been wondering about in the shower and get the answers!

Science Pub for this month will be January 31st, 2 PM at Brocach Irish Pub, 7 W Main Street,t on the square in downtown Madison.

January 31, 2010 - 2:00pm
