Join us for the final session in our Silver Science series, an interactive workshop for seniors, hosted by Libraries in collaboration with Tūhura Otago Museum.
In this session, we'll explore the Physics of Light and into the fascinating world of light spectrums - including visible light, ultraviolet (UV), and infrared. Learn about how stars emit light, the primary colors of light (red, green, and blue), and the surprising truth about light pollution and its effects on our night skies. This is a hands-on experience designed to reignite curiosity and inspire engaging discussions.
Cost: Free event for the community
Location: Humboldt Room at The Headwaters Eco Lodge, Glenorchy
