Get ready to explore the universe with Launch & Learn, an exciting opportunity to discover the wonders of space through the Iowa Library for the Blind and Print Disabled!
In conjunction with Experience the Cosmos: The James Webb Space Telescope Tactile Exhibit, Launch & Learn invites participants to explore the mysteries of our universe through engaging talks from local scientists.
Our first Launch & Learn is this Friday, October 16th at 12:00 pm via Zoom! We will talk with Ethan Beacom, a science educator in Des Moines. He currently works at the Science Center of Iowa and previously taught astronomy at Drake University. He is passionate about all things science, and his talk will include the history of astronomy, and how humans throughout time and space have looked at the stars. Different methods of stargazing will be explored, as well as how our understanding of the cosmos has changed over time with new advances in science and technology.
