SUMMARY:Red Planet Mars
DESCRIPTION:Mars and Earth have much in common. They’re both small rocky planets\, and although Mars is smaller\, both planets have a similar length of day.  Both planets have ice at the poles\, and Mars may even have water flowing like Earth.  Mars also may have quakes and similar geologic features. Scientists have been gathering evidence that Mars\, too\, may hold ancient life\, in the form of microbes.  This lecture will be given by Jim Todd\, Director of Space Science Education at the Oregon Museum of Science & Industry (OMSI).

SUMMARY:What Happened Before the Big Bang? with Ethan Siegel
DESCRIPTION:In the 1920’s\, cosmologists theorized that the Universe originated from a hotter\, denser state: this led to what we know today as the Big Bang. By extrapolating backwards to a variety of temperatures and times\, we were able to predict a number of consequences of this scenario. But this extrapolation led to problems as well: things that were observed but weren’t predicted. Scientists couldn’t simply give up and conclude that we couldn’t figure out what came before the beginning. Ethan Siegel will share how the last 40 years of research has uncovered what happened before – and beyond – the Big Bang\, and where the frontiers of knowledge are today.

SUMMARY:Harney County Migratory Bird Festival
DESCRIPTION:Spend an amazing weekend witnessing the spectacular spring  migration in the Harney Basin of Southeast Oregon. View thousands of migratory birds as they rest and feed in the open spaces of Oregon’s  high desert. Held annually in April in Harney County. \nThe Harney County Migratory Bird Festival was first held in 1981 ​to celebrate the large annual migration of birds passing through Harney Basin on the Pacific Flyway. Harney Basin is one of the three most important areas left in the western United States for spring migratory birds stopping on their way north. \n​Over 300 species of birds use the refuge throughout each year\, making Harney Basin a bird watcher’s paradise. Today\, we continue to celebrate the migratory birds’ return each year with guided tours led by experts\, workshops\, and fun activities for both youth and adults.
