If you're feeling a bit bummed about the state of the world these days, don't worry, eventually the Universe will end! @CofCSSM undergrad Bridget Ierace told us about all the ways that might happen!
First up, from Prof. Jon Hakkila: You silly humans think you can measure time with something simple like the length of a day. LOL nope! Because of tidal friction with the moon, the length of our day is constantly changing! (By just a tiiiiiiny bit, but still!)
The #BlueCosmos drink specials will be back! And one of our speakers likes to play fast and loose with silly rules like "the speed of light" and "causality"--come hear about how to break physics!
Have a drink, eat some pizza, and learn about astronomy! Join us @cofcphysics in the next @AoTCharleston on Wednesday October 9 at @MellowMushroom in downtown #CHS. Talks and trivia start at 5:30pm.
