SUMMARY:January Native Constellation Storytelling for Winter Skies
DESCRIPTION:Lowell Observatory and Grand Canyon Conservancy are proud to announce the second installment of “Native Constellation Storytelling for Winter Skies.” This unique and culturally enriching livestream event will take place on January 11 in collaboration with Grand Canyon Conservancy\, hosted by Lowell Observatory’s Public Information Officer and Historian\, Kevin Schindler\, in conversation with Gerald Dawavendewa\, a Hopi artist and author. \nSet a reminder to watch on Grand Canyon Conservancy’s YouTube channel! \nAbout Gerald  \nGerald’s artwork includes “Codex Taawa”\, a series of illustrations inspired by ancient imagery that explores the cosmos of the Hopi people. Each piece highlights a part of the Hopi tradition\, stories\, or knowledge. For the Hopi\, the night sky is an astronomical calendar with all of its elements used to set ceremonies\, rituals\, seasons\, events\, and measures of time. The Hopi people have observed and measured the movements in the sky to create a complex guide to assist them with existing in this world\, known as Tuuwaqatsi ― the Fourth World. Through his artwork\, Gerald hopes to share his culture\, and educate the public about the rich heritage of his Native tribes\, and promote a greater understanding of the Native world.

SUMMARY:Little Galaxy on the Celestial Prairie: Using the Lowell Discovery Telescope to Study Dwarf Galaxies
DESCRIPTION:While the Milky Way Galaxy contains several hundred billion stars\, dwarf galaxies have only 1\,000 to a few billion. To better understand these diminutive families of stars and how they form\, scientists use some of the world’s most powerful instruments. Tonight\, Dr. Deidre Hunter and Haylee Archer will join Lowell Historian Kevin Schindler to share how they’ve explored these tiny galaxies with the Lowell Discovery Telescope. This free program will be available to watch via a livestream feed on Lowell Observatory’s YouTube station.

SUMMARY:A Decade of Discovery | Searching For Planets Around Other Stars
DESCRIPTION:For millennia\, humans have asked the question\, “Are we alone?” One step in answering this question involves searching for and studying exoplanets—planets around stars other than our Sun. The Lowell Discovery Telescope (LDT) is ideal for such a study. One project\, for instance\, combines the power of the LDT with a Yale University-built instrument called EXPRES to detect earth-sized planets. Tonight\, our panel of experts—Dr. Joe Llama\, Dr. Catherine Clark\, and Dr. Debra Fischer—will join Lowell Historian Kevin Schindler to discuss how they use the LDT in their cutting-edge studies of exoplanets.

SUMMARY:Lowell 42: Imagining the Future of Space with Ed Finn
DESCRIPTION:The stars have never been closer: even elementary school students have sent satellites to orbit\, and the costs of launching are dropping dramatically. What happens when we see space as a canvas for human imagination? In this talk\, we will voyage to several space futures we dreamed up at ASU’s Center for Science and the Imagination and find out what they can teach us about the universe\, ourselves\, and life on Spaceship Earth. \nJoin in on this event in person in Lowell Observatory’s Giclas Lecture Hall for the price of general admission\, or watch it live from anywhere in the world on YouTube!
