Ever wondered how we know that 91.2% of the atoms in the Sun are hydrogen, or that there is water vapor in the atmosphere of a distant planet 700 light-years away? Learn about astronomical spectroscopy and discover the physics behind light and colour.

Join us for the third and final session of our Silver Science series; a free interactive workshop for our senior citizens bought to you by Tūhura Otago Museum and hosted by Queenstown Libraries.

Cost: Free event for the community

Location: Humboldt Room at The Headwaters Eco Lodge, Glenorchy

This event is meant to complement the ongoing efforts of the Tāhuna Glenorchy Dark Skies Sanctuary project, which aims to protect and celebrate our pristine night skies. Don’t miss out on a fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow space enthusiasts and dive into the wonders of our universe!

Special thanks to The Headwaters Eco Lodge for sponsoring the venue and helping make this community event possible.
