History of Astronomy in Medieval Times
May 28 @ 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM EDT
Get ready for another great round of astronomy talks! On May 28, Divna Manolova will reveal how medieval scientists understood the cosmos, particularly in the representation of eclipses, and what role they played in contributing to our modern understanding of astronomy. Our second speaker Jade Norindr will take the reverse approach, giving us a special glimpse into how modern techniques like machine learning and computer vision can help us study astronomical diagrams preserved in historical sources.
Join us on May 28 to share a pint and learn about our fascinating (and expanding!) universe.
Doors open at 7:30 pm. Talks start at 8!
