Next BAS Monthly Meeting:
Monday, October 6 at 7:00 p.m. at the library
Topic: Voyager!
This presentation will be on the two Voyager probes, launched in 1977, to fly by the outer planets, capturing close-up data and images. Fifty years later, both are still following trajectories out of the solar system and into interstellar space. We will also cover the Voyager Golden Record, which includes sounds and images of our natural world, as well as of humans, intended for any intelligent extraterrestrial species that may find them in the far distant future.
Club members will be sent a link to the Zoom meeting. Here is a link to the Join page on our website! If you are not a Club member but would like to attend, please email bvilleastro@gmail.com and ask to have the Zoom link sent to you!
