FEATURED EVENTS

Our star, the Sun, brings light and life to the Earth. We have studied the Sun for more than 400 years, and questions about the origins of solar magnetism remain amongst the most important in all of classical physics. The history studying this solar activity has deep ties in Colorado, and was central to Boulder becoming a world-renowned center of scientific research.Ìý

Join Professor Dr. Ben Brown to learn how we know what we know about the Sun, from early telescope observations in the mountains of Colorado to cutting edge studies of the Sun from space and from the peak of HaleakalÄ� on Maui. Ìý

Synchronicity is defined as "the simultaneous occurrence of events that appear significantly related, but have no discernible causal connection."

In addition to the original splendor of the film, Fiske's dome wizards will provide extra eye candy with our amazing fulldome system.
