Cosmic Conversations

Third Tuesdays at 7:00 pm


December's Topic: Hubble Tension Revisited


Join in a friendly small group discussion! Cosmic Conversations work much like a book group. Topics are pre-selected by the group, and are a starting point for the conversation. See below for this month's topic links.


These are non-mathematical discussions designed to “ignite a passion for science through the lens of astronomy." Don't have time to read all the links? No problem! Bring your curiosity and questions.


Free and open to the community, registration required, ages 16+. All experience levels are welcome.
