Join us for another edition of Astronomy on Tap at Aeronaut Brewing Co. on September 4th at 6pm! We will feature astronomy talks about the recently launched Rubin Observatory, which will capture the ultimate time-lapse movie of the universe in the next 10 years! Andrés A. Plazas Malagón (SLAC/ Stanford/ Harvard/ Boston University) will talk about how the Rubin Observatory’s LSST Camera, the world’s largest digital camera ever built, will help answer some of humanity’s greatest questions: How did the Milky Way form? What is the mysterious “dark” 95% of the universe? Leah Albrow (MIT) will share with us about interstellar interlopers with the Rubin Observatory, in light of the recent discovery of.3I/ATLAS, a comet that just wandered into the Solar System. There will also be trivia questions and opportunities to interact with professional astronomers over a pint of beer!
