Gaining a Cosmic Perspective

With UO Professor Scott Fisher

Saturday, January 20, 2018 • 6:00–8:00 p.m.
Doors open 5:30 p.m.


Astronomy lecturer Scott Fisher will reveal the wonders of the Universe during a lecture on "The Cosmic Perspective." Using images and videos from observatories including the Hubble Space Telescope and the Pine Mountain Observatory, Scott will use an easy-to-grasp scale that relates us to the actual size of the Universe we inhabit. With that new perspective, he will lead a discussion of one of the most exciting recent discoveries in all of astronomy--the existence of Exoplanets, the 3,500 planets we have identified that are known to orbit stars other than the Sun.
