SUMMARY:2026 MAS Monthly Meeting - Featured Speaker: Chuck Allen
DESCRIPTION:The MAS will be hosting a hybrid in-person & ZOOM Monthly Meeting.  MAS meetings are free and open to the public. JOIN US! \nFeatured Speaker: Chuck Allen – Astronomical League President\nTopic: The Home Galaxy\nStarting with the sun’s plunge through the Local Fluff\, this program examines the Milky Way Galaxy from the inside out. Seen first are neighborhood stars and exoplanets\, the Pleaides Moving Group responsible for our Local Bubble\, the Radcliffe Wave\, the Orion Spur to which many popular nebulae and clusters belong\, recent supernovae\, and finally the core of the galaxy\, SgrA*\, and its S-star neighbors. After a review of galactic structure\, we look at the galaxy’s Fermi Bubbles\, globular clusters\, stellar streams\, and integrated flux nebulae\, and\, just beyond\, the Milky Way’s 71 companion galaxies and Local Group neighbors\, one of which shares with us an intimate past and a future fate. \nBio:  Chuck Allen is president of the Astronomical League. He holds gold level Master Observer status with 45 observing programs completed\, founded the National Young Astronomer Award in 1993\, and received the League’s G. R. Wright Award for service in 1998. He has given more than 570 lectures and programs on astronomy and makes regular appearances in Explore Scientific global star party and League Live broadcasts. He also co-chaired ALCon ’21 Virtual. Chuck is past president of the Louisville Astronomical Society and program director of the Evansville Astronomical Society. He served as a judge and lead judge for the Intel (now Regeneron) International Science and Engineering Fair (1995-2002) and currently serves as a best-in-fair high school judge for two regional science fairs. \nReminder if you are feeling ill or have been around someone who has been ill\, PLEASE STAY HOME!! \nMeeting Location:AŊPÉTU TÉČA Education Center1910 County Road B WestRoseville\, Minnesota 55113 \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The hybrid meetings will be recorded on ZOOM\, and post-edited for publication after a few days on the MAS YouTube Channel. \nThis meeting will be held online using Zoom using the following URL:https://us06web.zoom.us/j/86397339731?pwd=7vctWn6P5gkUEqLr0tsjO2lF9gliCI.1 \nYou can probably hear best with a headset but your computer’s speaker and microphone will also work. \nDialing-in with a phone: \n\nMeeting ID:  863 9733 9731\nPasscode:    579232\nNumber: +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n\nIn order to ensure the most success we are asking everyone to follow a couple of rules: \n\nDon’t turn on your camera – it sucks up bandwidth and we really don’t need to see you.\nKeep your microphone muted until you are prompted during a question and answer session during the presentation.

SUMMARY:2025 MAS Monthly Meeting - Featured Speaker: Peter Birren
DESCRIPTION:The MAS will be hosting a hybrid in-person & ZOOM Monthly Meeting.  MAS meetings are free and open to the public. JOIN US! \nFeatured Speaker: Peter Birren\nTopic: Objects in the Heavens \nPeter Birren is retired from his graphic and marketing design business of 45 years. He moved a few years ago from under the monster light dome of Chicago to the Bortle 4 skies of Kentucky. He is a self-taught cosmic voyeur – assembling and creating his book\, “Objects in the Heavens”\, became his classroom. After years of hang gliding and camping out in the country\, the night sky became a real draw\, so the curiosity grew and developed into the book. OITH eventually came into being to answer the question of “What is it\, where is it and can I actually see it?” \nPeter’s talk involves his journey into astronomy and he will share with us a couple of discoveries he’s made. Questions will be allowed at any time during and after the presentation.  \nCOVID-19 PROTOCOL:  Masks are welcome\, but not required at the Monthly Meeting.  Reminder if you are feeling ill or have been around someone who has been ill\, PLEASE STAY HOME!! \nMeeting Location:AŊPÉTU TÉČA Education Center (formerly the Fairview Community Center)1910 County Road B WestRoseville\, Minnesota 55113 \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The hybrid meetings will be recorded on ZOOM\, and post-edited for publication after a few days on the MAS YouTube Channel. \nThis meeting will be held online using Zoom using the following URL:https://us06web.zoom.us/j/87110910626?pwd=aNaWHGWbHUaXyIbzNaGbsSWxh8PqxG.1 \nYou can probably hear best with a headset but your computer’s speaker and microphone will also work. \nDialing-in with a phone: \n\nMeeting ID:  871 1091 0626\nPasscode: 911955\nNumber: +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n\nIn order to ensure the most success we are asking everyone to follow a couple of rules: \n\nDon’t turn on your camera – it sucks up bandwidth and we really don’t need to see you.\nKeep your microphone muted until you are prompted during a question and answer session during the presentation.

SUMMARY:Monthly MAS Meeting - Featured Speaker Prof. Steven Spangler
DESCRIPTION:The MAS will be hosting a hybrid in-person & ZOOM Monthly Meeting.  MAS meetings are free and open to the public. JOIN US! \nFeatured Speaker: Prof. Steven Spangler – University of IowaTopic: Venus: Earth’s Twin(?)\nThere are eight major planets that orbit the Sun\, but none of them are very similar to the Earth.  In many ways\, Venus is the closest match.  Its orbit is closest to the Earth\, and it is nearly the same as regards size and mass.  It also possesses a thick atmosphere.  However\, at this point the similarities end.  The temperature on the surface of Venus is 860 Fahrenheit\, a temperature that is too hot for robot spacecraft\, let along life. The speaker will describe the overall characteristics of Venus as well as the probable reasons why it is so different\, will also talk about recent\, intriguing suggestions that Venus might have been much more similar to the Earth hundreds of millions of years ago.  We should learn much more after the arrival of three new spacecraft missions planned for the next decade. \nCOVID-19 PROTOCOL:  Masks are welcome\, but not required at the Monthly Meeting.  Reminder if you are feeling ill or have been around someone who has been ill\, PLEASE STAY HOME!! \nMeeting Location:AŊPÉTU TÉČA Education Center (formerly the Fairview Community Center)1910 County Road B WestRoseville\, Minnesota 55113 \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The hybrid meetings will be recorded on ZOOM\, and post-edited for publication after a few days on the MAS YouTube Channel. \nThis meeting will be held online using Zoom using the following URL: Zoom LINK \nYou can probably hear best with a headset but your computer’s speaker and microphone will also work. \nDialing-in with a phone: \n\nMeeting ID: 858 9703 9562\nPasscode: 085005\nNumber: +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n\nIn order to ensure the most success we are asking everyone to follow a couple of rules: \n\nDon’t turn on your camera – it sucks up bandwidth and we really don’t need to see you.\nKeep your microphone muted until you are prompted during a question and answer session during the presentation.
