When we combine live telescope data with cosmic ray, neutrino, and gravitational wave detector data, we can build a more complete picture of dramatic cosmic events in our universe as they unfold.<br> Follow scientists at the International Gemini Observatory as they collaborate with other observatories to observe events happening in the night sky. Learn how they discover wandering asteroids, stellar explosions, and black holes!</p> <p style="line-height: 24px;" align="left">Duration: 30 minutes<br> Recommended for ages 9 and older</p> <p style="line-height: 24px;"><br></p> <p data-offset-key="a9htf-0-0" style="line-height: 24px;"><br> <span data-offset-key="a9htf-0-0"><br></span></p> https://friendsoftheplanetarium.org/event-6811772 https://friendsoftheplanetarium.org/event-6811772 Sat, 12 Sep 2026 23:30:00 GMT <p style="line-height: 24px;"><strong><span><font color="#F7941D">This program is offered by the Friends of Arlington's David M.

Brown Planetarium!</p> <p data-pm-slice="1 1 []" style="line-height: 29px;">For over 400 years, humans have studied the cosmos through telescopes anchored to the ground. That changed with the rise of spaceflight; only in the last 50 years have telescopes escaped the Earth's atmosphere entirely and opened a new window on the universe.</p> <p style="line-height: 29px;">Join us for a talk from two NASA astrophysicists on the space telescopes of yesterday, today, and tomorrow—from Hubble's nearly four decades of discovery to James Webb, Nancy Grace Roman, and more. Learn about some of their most striking discoveries and what the future holds.</p> <p style="line-height: 24px;">Duration: approximately 1 hour<br> Recommended for ages 9 and older</p> <p style="line-height: 24px;"><br></p> <p data-offset-key="a9htf-0-0" style="line-height: 24px;"><br> <span data-offset-key="a9htf-0-0"><br></span></p> https://friendsoftheplanetarium.org/event-6811780 https://friendsoftheplanetarium.org/event-6811780 Sun, 13 Sep 2026 17:30:00 GMT <p style="line-height: 24px;"><strong><span><font color="#F7941D">This program is offered by the Friends of Arlington's David M.
