SUMMARY:Speaker Night - Dr Samantha Lawler
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Samantha Lawler\, University of Regina \nTitle: “Megaconstellations of satellites are about to ruin the night sky for everyone” \nAbstract:\nSeveral companies are starting to launch megaconstellations of thousands of communication satellites (satcons)\, which would increase the number of active satellites in Low Earth Orbit at least twenty-fold in the next few years.  SpaceX’s Starlink satcon is currently largest (over 2\,000 satellites) and is adding 60 new satellites every couple of weeks.  While these satcons do allow internet access in many underserved rural and remote locations\, the costs are prohibitively high for all but the most well-off customers.  These thousands of satellites each reflect sunlight\, causing serious problems for research astronomy\, and making anthropogenic light pollution a fully global phenomenon that cannot be escaped anywhere on Earth.  Our recent simulations show that because of geometry and the chosen satellite orbits\, latitudes near 50 degrees N and S will see the worst light pollution from these satcons\, with hundreds of naked-eye visible satellites all night long in the summer.  These satellites also contribute to significant atmospheric pollution\, both on launch and re-entry\, contribute to diffuse sky emission\, and drastically increase the very real threat of Kessler Syndrome.  I will talk about how these satellites will affect stargazers and astronomers worldwide\, and what you can do to help mitigation efforts. \nBio:\nSamantha Lawler studies the orbits of Kuiper Belt objects\, exoplanets\, and dust disks using optical and IR observations and dynamical simuations.  She completed her undergrad degree at Caltech\, followed by two years there working with early Spitzer Space Telescope data\, and then earned a Master’s degree from Wesleyan University.  She completed her PhD at UBC\, a postdoc at UVic\, and then a Plaskett Fellowship at NRC-Herzberg\, all while raising kids and getting slowly drawn further into farm life with her partner.  Somehow\, magically\, she found an amazing balance: she is now an assistant professor of astronomy at Campion College at the University of Regina\, and lives on a 150 acre farm where she helps raise goats\, chickens\, and organic vegetables with her partner and kids\, while enjoying and trying to protect the huge prairie skies. \nZoom link to meeting

SUMMARY:Speaker Night - Dr Chris Impey
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr Chris Impey Steward Observatory\, University of Arizona    \nTopic: Astrobiology- How strange life might be? \nLife on Earth is found in surprising places: in high and arid deserts\, on the sea floor near volcanic vents\, and even deep within rock. The discovery of biological adaptation to extreme conditions makes it very likely that variations on biology will exist on moons and planets around many of the billions of Sun-like stars in the Milky Way. The talk addresses the issue of even more unusual forms of life\, where the biological basis may be different or unrecognizable. \nBIOGRAPHY: Chris Impey is a University Distinguished Professor of Astronomy at the University of Arizona. He has 210 refereed publications on observational cosmology\, galaxies\, and quasars\, and his research has been supported by $20 million in NASA and NSF grants. He has won eleven teaching awards and has taught three online classes with over 350\,000 enrolled and 5 million minutes of video lectures watched. Chris Impey is a past Vice President of the American Astronomical Society\, and he has won its career Education Prize. He’s also been NSF Distinguished Teaching Scholar\, Carnegie Council’s Arizona Professor of the Year\, and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Professor. He has written 80 popular articles on cosmology\, astrobiology and education\, two textbooks\, a novel called Shadow World\, and nine popular science books: The Living Cosmos\, How It Ends\, Talking About Life\, How It Began\, Dreams of Other Worlds\, Humble Before the Void\, Beyond: The Future of Space Travel\, Einstein’s Monsters: The Life and Times of Black Holes\, and an upcoming book on exoplanets\, Worlds Without End. \nJoin Zoom Meeting

SUMMARY:Speaker Night - Dr. Lea Hirsch
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr Lea Hirsch\, University of Toronto – Mississauga \nHere Come the Suns: The statistics and habitability of planets in binary star systems  \n Most planet searches focus on single stars\, like the sun. But half of all sun-like stars actually live in binary or multiple stellar systems\, whose planet-hosting capability may be quite different. Although planets in binary systems are common in pop culture (think Tattoine in Stark Wars\, or Gallifrey from Doctor Who)\, we know far less about them empirically than their counterparts in single star systems. In binary systems\, planets can occupy either circum-stellar or circum-binary orbits\, but many orbital configurations are thought to be unstable due to the effects of the binary companion. Binaries are also thought to affect the proto-planetary disks of their companions\, potentially disrupting their ability to form planets at all.  \n In this talk\, I will describe the current state of our theoretical and observational knowledge of the occurrence rates and statistics of planets in binary star systems. I’ll also discuss efforts to simulate the habitability of planets in binaries\, which may pass in and out of the so-called habitable zone in their trajectories around one or both of the stars in their system. \n BIOGRAPHY: Lea Hirsch received her BA degree in Physics in 2012 from Cornell University\, and PhD in Astronomy in 2018 at the University of California Berkeley. She completed a three-year postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford University before starting as an assistant professor in the teaching stream at University of Toronto Mississauga this fall.  Her PhD Dissertation was on ‘Planets in Binary Systems: Studies with Precise Radial Velocities and High Resolution Imaging’. She is author or co-author on 68 publications. Her research has taken her to telescopes like Lick\, Kitt Peak\, Keck\, and Gemini Observatories\, as well as far into the wild blue yonder aboard the SOFIA flying observatory! She is an avid climber\, hiker\, sewist\, and sci-fi fan in her spare time\, as well as participating in public outreach. \nhttps://www.utm.utoronto.ca/cps/people/lea-hirsch \nZoom link to the meeting

SUMMARY:Potpourri Night
DESCRIPTION:Host: Randy Attwood \nShriya Naik: A review of the book: ‘Advanced Skywatching: The backyard astronomer’s guide to starhopping and exploring the universe’  A Nature Company Guide by Robert Burnham\, Alan Dyer\, Robert A Garfinkel\, Martin George\, Jeff Kanipe and David H Levy \nChris Malicki  Recent observations of the proper motion of 61 Cygni \nShakeel Anwar        Images of the recent November 3 aurora. \nJohn Burgener     A new 3D program to simulate comet skip impacts and the possible cause of the Carolina Bays as secondary debris impacts. \nSummary:  I will be presenting a new 3 Dimensional simulation of comet skip impacts and the debris tossed out by such an impact. The program focus is on the debris not the original crater. In this case\, the original crater shape is not critical. Instead the focus is on the origins\, paths\, and landing locations and conditions of the debris. The program shows the debris being tossed from the impact\, and generates the debris from random number allocations of different sizes\, speeds and launch angles\, and then applies gravity\, Earth’s rotation\, atmospheric drag\, momentum until the debris particles hit the surface of Earth (or continue into space in orbit around the Sun). One can then look at any point on Earth and see the secondary craters formed from the debris\, with the craters colour coded to let you know which portion of the comet hit. Also\, the impact angle and speeds are listed for each secondary crater. This is a demonstration of a style of impact rarely studied\, but I believe happening far more often than previously thought\, and I believe the source of Lake Michigan itself which is of similar size and shape to  Mars’ Orcus Patera crater. I have previously talked about my theory that Lake  Michigan is a skip impact crater. This presentation is on the software simulating that event to see if it produces the Carolina Bays (It does) and showing some other simulations of skip impacts on Earth. \nBrian Gibson First Light with the new Sharpstar 130mm f2.8 HNT Astrograph \nI photographed the Triangulum Galaxy M33 with it from my deck in Thornbury (Bortle 4).  I mounted it on an iOptron CEM40G equatorial mount.  It was one of those very rare clear nights in October. \nRandy Attwood   A preview of the November 19 Lunar Eclipse \nLink to the meeting

SUMMARY:Speaker Night
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr Michelle Thaller\, Goddard Space Center\, NASA \nTalk: Space’s Scariest Monsters: Neutron Stars and Black Holes \nFor a Halloween treat\, come learn about the extremely scary afterlives of stars.  After the destruction of a supernova explosion\, the leftovers can become either a neutron star or a black hole.  These monsters can bend space and send time curing in front of our eyes\, and things that go bump in the dark can rip parts of the earth’s atmosphere off from thousands of light years away.  On a friendlier note\, our bodies contain bits of stellar corpses from stars that died billions of years ago -we’d be dead without them! \nDr. Michelle Thaller is an astrophysicist with over two decades of science communication experience. Her research involves the lifecycles of stars\, and she has worked at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory\, NASA Headquarters and the Goddard Space Flight Center\, where she is currently the liaison between the Office of Communication and the Science Directorate. Outside her work at NASA\, she has appeared in many television science programs\, including How the Universe Works and Space’s Deepest Secrets.  Michelle has done two TEDx talks about astronomy and has hosted the podcast Orbital Path on public radio. \n  \nHere is the link to the ZOOM presentation. \n

SUMMARY:Speaker Night - Dr Laurie Rousseau-Nepton
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr Laurie Rousseau-Nepton \nTitle: Learning about the Birth of Stars with SITELLE. \n \n\nTalk Abstract: October 2018 marked the beginning of a new large program at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope: SIGNALS\, the Star-formation\, Ionized Gas\, and Nebular Abundances Legacy Survey. During the next four years and with 60 nights of telescope time in hands\, our collaboration is observing more than 50\,000 extragalactic star-forming regions located in different galactic environments using the instrument SITELLE\, a Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrograph. In order to build this sample\, we cover 40 galaxies that are actively forming stars within a distance of 10 Mpc. SITELLE was build in Canada and is the perfect instrument to survey these often extended objets. \nWith SIGNALS\, we are seeking to increase our knowledge on how stars form in galaxies\, how their birthplace affects their properties\, and how multiple generations of stars transform galaxies. Stars continuously affect their environment by returning new elements to the interstellar gas. These new elements are then recycled to form new stars. Stars form in a wide variety of environments. These can be different galaxy to galaxy\, location to location. The result is that each star has its own story. By studying 50\,000 regions where stars actively form\, we will understand what triggers their formation\, how efficiently stars form\, and how each generation transforms the gas around them. This will also help researchers to understand the star-formation history of the whole Universe since the Big-Bang. During this presentation\, Laurie will introduce this ambitious project and the instrument SITELLE as well as share preliminary results.\n\nSpeaker Bio: Laurie Rousseau-Nepton is a resident astronomer at the Canada-France-Hawaii Observatory and was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Hawaii between 2017 and 2019. First indigenous woman in Canada to obtain a PhD in astrophysics\, she received her diploma from Université Laval by studying regions of stellar formation in spiral galaxies. Laurie Rousseau-Nepton was a FRQNT postdoctoral scholarship recipient\, previously received the Hubert Reeves Fellowship and the Award for native women in sciences of the Association des femmes diplômées des universités du Québec. She is now leading an international project called SIGNALS\, aiming at observing thousands of newly born stars in galaxies close to the Milky Way to understand how their birthplace affect the rest of their life and the galaxies evolution. She is involved in Equity\, Diversity and Inclusion committees for the Canadian Association of Physicist and for the Maunakea Observatories and is devoted in promoting a community driven way to do science. \nJoin the Zoom meeting

SUMMARY:Speaker Night
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Emily Carney\n  \nTitle:  Skylab: An Overview \nTalk Abstract:  Skylab\, which was crewed from 1973 to 1974\, enjoyed only a brief moment in the cultural zeitgeist (and\, of course\, infamously reentered over parts of Western Australia). While the United States’ first space station is often overlooked in the canon of space history\, this talk will discuss its origins from its “wet workshop” days to its legacy\, and direct descendant – the International Space Station (ISS)\, which still orbits above us.\nInformation about our speaker:\nEmily Carney is a spaceflight enthusiast and author hailing from Saint Petersburg\, Florida. Her first vivid space memory was seeing Columbia launch in late 1981 (STS-2). Even though she was very young (three years old) and the launch was 140 miles away from where she stood\, she’ll never forget it. From then on\, she was obsessed with the space shuttle\, and spaceflight in general.\nIn 1997\, Carney enlisted in the United States Navy\, and at one point worked as a nuclear propulsion mechanical operator aboard the USS George Washington (CVN 73). When she was honorably discharged in 2003\, she went back to college and earned a degree in education. She only taught for a brief time\, but after she left the education field\, her passion for spaceflight was reignited.\nCarney worked as a freelance writer from 2008 to 2011\, and during that time she started a spaceflight blog\, This Space Available (accessible via https://space.nss.org/category/this-space-available/). She also co-hosts a weekly podcast\, Space and Things\, with Dave Giles (https://spaceandthingspodcast.com/).\nIn 2011\, Carney wanted to start a Facebook group for space enthusiasts\, but was struggling to find a good name. Her husband\, Steve\, suggested “Space Hipsters” as sort of a sarcastic placeholder\, but the name stuck. The group grew more quickly than she could imagine\, and at present time it totals over 20\,000 members. Space Hipsters boasts members from all around the world\, and includes space enthusiasts\, writers\, artists\, scientists\, engineers\, aspiring astronauts\, and even a few actual astronauts.\nZoom link\n
