Habitablity Potential and Life Detection on Other Planets

• TIME: 7:30pm
  PLACE: Hayden Planetarium Space Theater, American Museum of Natural History, Central Park West at 79th St
  COST: $14
• SUMMARY: “The pursuit of life elsewhere in the Solar System is quite challenging, because we only know what life looks like on one planet. But when we break the problem down into easily digestible pieces, we can define an incremental and quantitative approach that makes sense. This is an exciting time to explore the Solar System because the scientific approach and the maturity of methodologies and instrumentation is leading us closer to the answer to the question “Is anyone else out there?” in our Solar System.”

  PLACE: The Nuyorican Poets Cafe, 236 East 3rd St between Ave B and C
  COST:$6
• SUMMARY: “High school may not always be a good time, but it sure leads to great stories-and produces compelling, hilarious, and creative storytellers. Join The Moth for a funky, fast-paced night of tales told by the talented students of Bard and Millennium high schools, accompanied by the always irreverently fabulous Adam Wade, and the musical spinnings of SUPERVIXEN.”
