SUMMARY:February Sol Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:February 20th 2025\, 8pm GMT/ 3pm EST\n“Power generation and warp drive”\nDouglas Johnston \nDouglas Johnston is a manufacturing technician at Oxford Instruments in the UK. He has a background in physics with renewable energy science and has carried out academic research on Galian Arsenide solar panels\, which are often used on satellites. He has been a Star Trek fan ever since watching Enterprise with his dad as a child\, and has fallen in love with the many shows and films since. \nIn his talk\, “Power generation and warp drive”\, he will discuss Star Trek’s fictional engines in relation to real life fusion and matter/antimatter physics\, as well as taking a look at the Alcubierre drive – a speculative warp drive idea according to which a spacecraft could achieve apparent faster-than-light travel. \nYou must register to get the Zoom link for this event\, simply email capt.barbbarton@gmail.com and put Sol in the subject line or visit our website at https://sciences.sfi.org/sol-speaker-series/

SUMMARY:Sol Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:“Astrophotography: Yes\, You Can!!”\nGuest Speaker: Commodore Mike Calhoun\, Director of STARFLEET Sciences \nJoin Mike for an introduction to beginning astrophotography. What is it?
