2010 Feb 10, 7:30 PM Evolution of Galaxies, with Dr. Anne Metevier SCAS, at Proctor Terrace School, 1171 Bryden Lane, Santa Rosa. In these amazing times of astronomical discovery we know that the panoply of stars we see are part of our galaxy, and that ours is just one of a mind-boggling and innumerable zoo of other galaxies. As we use new instruments and techniques to see farther into distance and time, we see patterns in the way the universe expresses itself by the way it organizes matter (luminous and dark) into galaxies, clusters of them. Now you have an opportunity to come hear a researcher on the cutting edge of the study of galactic evolution as we welcome Dr. Anne Metevier to present her talk, “Studying the Evolution of Disk Galaxies Over the Last 7 Billion Years”.
