About The Lectures

As part of continuiing public outreach on science and astronomy, following The International Year of Astronomy 2009, Jason Kendall is presenting numerous Planetarium Show / Lectures at the New York Public Library, Inwood Branch and at other locations around New York City. Supported by NASA's Solar System Ambassador Program, each planetarium show is a two-hour space and sky slide show and lecture. Featuring astonishing photos from the NASA's current space and planetary exploration missions and up-to-date research and ideas from Astronomy, it's a great way to learn Astronomy with a knowledgable NASA/JPL volunteer to answer all your questions. All events are free, open to the public, and suitable for kids and families. There will also be free NASA handouts, posters and lithographs for everyone who comes.
