SUMMARY:General Meeting – September 2017
DESCRIPTION:Introductory Presentation:  More Eclipse Tales\nPresenter:  Alex Filippenko  \nWe will show the second Alex Filippenko lecture called “More Eclipse Tales\,” from his Understanding the Universe DVD course. Following that\, we’ll hear some members share their Total Solar Eclipse 2017 experiences.  (Members’ photos of the eclipse will be shown in November. We’ll talk about how to participate.) \nMain Presentation:  Satellite Galaxies and Dwarfs in the Local Group\nPresenter:  Ekta Patel \n Ekta will begin by reviewing the current classification system used by astronomers to identify different types of galaxies. She will then present an overview of satellite galaxies\, including what they are\, how they were discovered\, and how astronomers use them to understand the evolution and formation of our own Milky Way galaxy and the neighboring Andromeda galaxy. She will explain the current research she is conducting using computer simulations of the Universe to further study satellite galaxies in a context beyond the scope of what observations alone can teach us.
