The Hunt for Another Earth (moved to theatre instead of planetarium)

Geoff Marcy

The new Kepler spaceborn telescope is hunting for Earth-size planets, with hundreds in its sights.  Kepler has already found definitively rocky planets, like Earth, and is now hunting for habitable ones. This talk will present up-to-the-minute results from the Kepler Team.   Biologists are working with astronomers to assess the environmental conditions necessary for life, especially intelligent life, on planets elsewhere in the universe.  

Location on campus has been changed.  This presentation will be in the CSM Theater near the front of the college-NOT in the Planetarium
