November Meeting - Dr Ghina M. Halabi
Our next monthly meeting is on Thursday, 1st November 2018 at 7:30pm.
The intimate lives of stars
Stars are our intimate connection with the cosmos and exploring them is an exploration of our own cosmological heritage. They live eventful lives then fade away and die, donating matter back to the Universe, matter which may form new stars and planets one day.
How do we study them?
What do we know about them and what mysteries do they still hold?
That’s what the talk will unfold.
Dr Ghina M. Halabi
