Reach for the Stars with SCPL!

Join Santa Cruz Public Libraries on a whirlwind tour of how galaxies form and the many ways in which they die. Astrophysicist Ph.D. student Viraj Pandya from UCSC will lecture about the lifecycle of a galaxy including galactic-scale warming and sterilization, galactic cannibalism, and astrophysical “winds” driven by supermassive black holes. Afterward, stick around for a virtual reality space tour and some stargazing with one of the library’s lendable telescopes.
