*** Space Shows in the Hayden Planetarium ***
Europa and Jupiter - The Search for Life: Are We Alone?
http://www.amnh.org/rose/searchforlife.html
The Search for Life: Are We Alone? is presented daily at 10:30 and 11:30 a.m. and 12:30, 1:30, 2:30 and 4:00 p.m.
Additional Friday show times: 5:00, 6:00, and 7:00 p.m.
On December 2, 9, and 16, 2005, there will be no planetarium shows after 5 p.m. This includes the 5 p.m. through 7 p.m. space shows.
Does life exist anywhere else in the universe? Ancient mythologies and contemporary science fiction have presented imaginative possibilities, but how does modern science approach this question? The Search for Life: Are We Alone? at the Rose Center for Earth and Space begins to answer this intriguing question in a breathtaking new Space Show narrated by Academy Award–nominated actor Harrison Ford.

Mars, the Red Planet - Passport to the Universe
http://www.amnh.org/rose/passport.html
Passport to the Universe is presented daily at 11:00 a.m. and 1:00, 2:00, 3:30, and 4:30 p.m.
Additional Friday show times: 5:30 and 6:30 p.m.
On December 2, 9, and 16, 2005, there will be no planetarium shows after 5 p.m. This includes the 5 p.m. through 7 p.m. space shows.
The breathtaking Passport to the Universe, narrated by Academy Award winner Tom Hanks, reveals the wonders of our universe in a way never before possible in a planetarium. No longer dependent on a single, multi-lens projector, the presentation is driven by computers and processors that treat the audiences to realistic close-up views of star fields and planets, taking them on an exhilarating flight through a virtual re-creation of our universe, into the Orion Nebula, out of our galaxy, and deep into intergalactic space. After reaching the edges of our known universe, the tour takes a "virtual shortcut" back to Earth — in a free fall, headlong through a black hole.

Cosmic Collisions (NEW! 3/18~ 기대기대~~~)
http://www.amnh.org/rose/spaceshow/cosmic/?src=e_h
The premiere of a breathtaking new Space Show, Cosmic Collisions, narrated by award-winning actor, director, and producer Robert Redford, will take place on Saturday, March 18, 2006, at the Hayden Planetarium in the Frederick Phineas and Sandra Priest Rose Center for Earth and Space.
A spectacular immersive theater experience, Cosmic Collisions launches visitors on a thrilling trip through space and time—well beyond the calm face of the night sky—to explore cosmic collisions, hypersonic impacts that drive the dynamic and continuing evolution of the universe. Groundbreaking scientific simulations and visualizations based on cutting-edge research developed by Museum astrophysicists, scientists at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and other international colleagues—many seen for the first time—depict the dramatic and explosive encounters that shaped our solar system, changed the course of life on Earth, and continue to transform our galaxy. The new show explores the full range of space collisions, past, present, and future.
Viewers will witness the violent face of our Sun, imaged by NASA satellites, that produces enormous ejections of material from our star towards our planet. The resulting subatomic clashes, as streams of charged particles from the Sun strike the Earth's magnetic field, produce the eerie glow of the aurora borealis and the aurora australis that fill the Hayden dome. Cosmic Collisions will also show the creation of our Moon some five billion years ago when a wandering planetoid struck Earth; the violent meeting of two stars at the edge of the galaxy; and the future collision of our Milky Way galaxy with our closest neighbor, the Andromeda spiral galaxy, a cosmic crash that will produce a new giant elliptical galaxy billions of years from now.
Audiences will feel the ground shake beneath them as they experience a thrilling recreation of the meteorite impact that hastened the end of the Age of Dinosaurs 65 million years ago and cleared the way for mammals like us to thrive. Another dramatic sequence highlights a frightening future scenario where humanity desperately attempts to divert the path of an oncoming "doomsday" asteroid headed on a collision course with Earth.

Celebrate the coming of spring with an afternoon of solar activities. Educators from the Rose Center will lead Sun-related activities for children of all ages: cook with solar ovens, print pictures using the Sun's energy, detect UV light with special bracelets, and observe the sun through special telescopes. Race a solar powered car and win prizes!
2006 Isaac Asimov Memorial Debate: Universe: One or Many?
http://www.amnh.org/programs/programs.php?src=p_h&date=2006-03-29&event_id=180
(영어를 다 알아듣는다면 상당히 재미있을 것 같은데, 사전기초교양지식으로 전문서까지 추천하고 있어서;)
March 29, 2006 / 7:30 p.m.
LeFrak Theater — 77th Street 'Canoe' entrance
$14 ($12 Members, students, senior citizens)
Join a panel of cosmologists to argue and debate the possibility that our Universe is just one of many universes that comprise the "multiverse." This notion invokes dimensions beyond our everyday experience and draws from the leading edge of our conception of the cosmos. The presence or absence of data in support of these ideas forms a central theme for the evening.
Panelists:
Michio Kaku — Henry Semat Professor in Theoretical Physics at City College – CUNY; host of Explorations in Science radio program on WBAI and national radio; author of Hyperspace, and Parallel Worlds.
Lawrence Krauss — Ambrose Swasey Professor of Physics and Astronomy and Director of the Center for Education and Research in Cosmology and Astrophysics at Case Western Reserve University; author of Hiding in the Mirror: The Mysterious Allure of Extra Dimensions, from Plato to String Theory and Beyond.
Lisa Randall — Professor of Physics at Harvard University; author of Warped Passages: Unravelling the Mysteries of the Universe’s Hidden Dimensions; works on multiverses in the context of extra dimensions
Andrei Linde — Professor of Physics at Stanford University, theoretical cosmologist and one of the original architects of the multiverse concept
Virginia Trimble — Professor of Physics at University of California–Irvine and Las Cumbres Observatory; acute observer of the history and philosophy of astronomy
Isaac Asimov, one of the most prolific and influential authors of our time, was a dear friend and supporter of the American Museum of Natural History. In his memory, the Hayden Planetarium is honored to host the annual Isaac Asimov Memorial Debate — generously endowed by relatives, friends, and admirers of Isaac Asimov and his work — bringing the finest minds in the world to the Museum each year to debate pressing questions on the frontier of scientific discovery. Proceeds from ticket sales of the Isaac Asimov Memorial Debates benefit the scientific and educational programs of the Hayden Planetarium.
To prepare for this event, we recommend the audience read the popular-level article, "The Self-Reproducing Inflationary Universe" by panelist Andrei Linde — view it on Prof. Linde’s webpage.
Also to be found there is a movie that illustrates how a multiverse might form.
The 2006 Mack Lipkin Man and Nature Lecture:
Biodiversity and the Evolutionary Roots of Beauty
(참가 신청은 해놨는데... 잘 알아들을 수 있을지;; 흥미로워 보이는 강연은 많은데 어려울 것 같아서 ;ㅁ;)
April 27, 2006 / 7:00 p.m.
Kaufmann Theater, first floor
Free
Seating limited; registration recommended
Throughout history, individuals and cultures have been captivated by the unusual and rare in nature. What does this fascination say about who we are? Is it a conscious choice or an evolved behavior? And how is it revealed in the preservation of biodiversity? Renowned ecologist Gordon Orians delves into the intricate relationship between humans and nature.
