Allies in Space update
ALLIES IN SPACE UPDATE!!
======================== With the must-attend Allies in Space show only a couple weeks away, news is breaking out more rapidly. Please keep up to date at 'www.nyskies.org'. Follow the links near the bottom of the home page. (The link in the header goes only to the flyer that you will pass around to your astronomy and spacefaring friends.) For the immediate read, Allies in Space is on Saturday 3 November 2007 12:30-16:30 EDST at the Graduate Center's first floor auditorium, 34th St and 5th Av, Manhattan. Yes, thru generous support from astronomers in the New York area the Allies in Space lecture is free and open to the public. There are now FOUR featured speakers to narrate their views AND to take your own questions about the world's space program. They a Alexander Bolonkin Tom Hamilton Tom Hill Larry Price Their bios are in the linked ASTRo-GAIA website. The NYSkies flyer has only three speakers because as at this instant it is not yet updated. It's perfectly good for giving the essential specs for the show. An updated flyer will be hung by tomorrow, the 13th, morning. This Sputnik celebration is attracting notice by space and astronomy clubs off of Manhattan because the City University Graduate Center is only a kilometer walk from Grand Central Terminal, Penn Station, and Port of Authority bus depot. With no fuss, no bother, no mess, it's one of the easiest daytrips a club can take! It's well to register, for first-seating, at the linked ASTRO- GAIA website. While not necessary, there are only 180 seats in the auditorium! Don't be turned away!! After the presentation, you got all of Manhattan around you when you step out of the theater. Visit the Empire State building (tallish thing with a needle on top, diagonally across from the Graduate Center), do the 34th Street shopping, play in Times Square, dine at Top of the Rock in Rockefeller Center. Hey! Go to Herald Sq and catch one of the City's new green taxis! Human-powered two-seaters line up there waiting for you. They're part of the all-points project to reduce greenhouse emissions and build a sustainable economy. |
