"Talking to Space!"
Saturday, July 8
Explore the science of "Talking to Space!" From speaking to astronauts in low earth orbit and communicating with NASA deep space probes to efforts to listen for and send messages to other planets, we'll experiment with a variety of techniques and technologies.
In hands-on activities, we'll "see" the invisible electromagnetic spectrum and map the infosphere, test equipment to transmit signals, and use NASA simulation software to manage a deep space communication network!
Participants will also have exclusive access to a new planetarium show about how we receive information about distant stars through our eyes and telescopes, narrated by Neil deGrasse Tyson. Tickets include admission to the museum and refreshments!
Space and materials are limited, so reserve your spot today!
