Please join us for the Astronomy Public Talk series, where we host short, accessible talks on a wide range of astronomy and physics-related topics—free and open to the public!

This event will feature a presentation by UI Physics and Astronomy graduate student Kevin Hall. Believe it or not, astronomers can correct a telescope's vision in "real-time" to sharpen its view on the night sky. In this talk, Hall will explore the history of adaptive optics and the scientific discoveries it has made...

Please join the University of Iowa Physics and Astronomy department as we use the Van Allen Observatory and small telescopes to tour the spring sky. To attend this Astronomy observation session, follow the signs in Van Allen Hall to the east elevator to reach the roof.
