The Lives of the Stars
Lunch Matters

Wednesday March 10, 2010 @ 1:00 PM
Price: $10.00


Using computer animation and amazing astronomical art, Dr. Sagan shows how stars are born, live, die and sometimes collapse to form neutron stars or black holes.

We then journey into the future to witness the last perfect day on Earth, 5 billion years from now, after which the sun will engulf our planet in the fires of its death throes.
