EMU Professor Jesse Mason will show and discuss the latest images from the Hubble Space Telescope. Hubble’s orbit outside Earth’s atmosphere allows it to take extremely high-resolution images with negligible background light and distortion. Weather permitting, we will then go outside to look at space from some telescopes set up outside the Warren library. Teens and adults are welcome.
