Astronomy
Online: Reason for the Seasons
Friday, October 8, 1:00 pm ET
This Friday, blast off into outer space
with Museum astrophysicists Jackie Faherty and Daniella
Bardalez Gagliuffi to discover why Earth’s tilt is
the reason for our seasons, what seasons on our
neighboring planets are like, and why. Science teacher
and Museum MAT alum Deion Desir pilots our
journey in OpenSpace, taking viewers above Earth’s
atmosphere and across our solar system.
