Monthly Meeting
RASC Ottawa
Can it possibly be true that our Sun loses 30,000 blue whales' worth of mass every second... and that it's been doing that for billions of years? How many whales is that, anyway?
One way to know for sure is to join us for the RASC Ottawa Centre Zoom-inar Friday 14 October 7:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada). I keep offering free beer at the end of these things but no-one has taken me up on it yet.
Anyone looking to look out from this Earth is welcome.
Pre-register for this Zoom webinar (unless you are presenting a talk or observation) at https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/1916628536058/WN_ZgJSNQtxQsGeQS...
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.
NOTE: If you are presenting an observation you will then be sent a unique link (from Chris Teron) to join as a panellist and do not need to register.
Our very serious science-oriented agenda could include
- Mick Wilson – Introduction
- Jesse Rogerson and Cassandra Marion (CASM) – Exoplanet Naming Contest
- Dave Chisholm - Ottawa Skies for October
- Andrea Girones - Tips for Photographing the November lunar eclipse
- BioBreak and bio-degradable Astro-trivia
