Event : Help astronomers solve a 175-year-old mystery!
Category : Community
Date : 11/12/2009
Time : 2:30 p.m.

Details : Dyersburg, TN – A very bright star called epsilon Aurigae changes in brightness every 27 years and no one knows why! Its brightness is too high for most large telescopes used by professional astronomers. As a part of the Citizen Sky project, the public is invited to observe this star with other interested night sky watchers! To get this project started, Dyersburg State Community College will host an introductory presentation on the epsilon Aurigae observation project at the Learning Resource Center on the Dyersburg Campus at 1:30 P.M. on Wednesday, November 11. This presentation will also be shown in the Jimmy Naifeh Building, room 128B at the DSCC Jimmy Naifeh Center at Tipton County on Wednesday, November 12 at 2:30 P.M. No prior scientific training or equipment is needed. Citizen Sky is a collaboration of the American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO), the University of Denver, the Adler Planetarium, the Johns Hopkins University and the California Academies of Science with support from the National Science Foundation. For additional information, please contact Aklilu Maasho at 731/286-3224 or maasho@dscc.edu.
