Dr. Alan Title
Stanford University & Lockheed Martin Advanced Technology Center
When: March 10, 2010 - 7:30 pm
In 1609 Galileo discovered Sunspots and measured the rotation of the Sun. These observations started a revolution in our understanding of our solar system and the Universe as a whole. Obserations, computer animations, and numerical simulations provide important tools in understanding our star, the Sun. Dr. Title will review four centuries of critical scientific discoveries and even take a short peak into the future.
