SUMMARY:HYBRID – General Meeting – June 2022
DESCRIPTION:TAAA’s next General Member Meeting will be held on Friday\, June 3\, 2022 at 6:30 P.M. This will be a hybrid meeting (both in person and online). TAAA members will receive a Zoom link should they wish to attend remotely. The public may attend in person or online through our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/TucsonAstronomy. (This being our first hybrid meeting\, please be patient as we work out any technical kinks!)\n6:30 pm – Main Presentation\nTITLE:  Imaging Giant Planets Forming Around Young Stars \nPRESENTATION:  Giant planets form within the first few million years of a system’s lifetime. After formation\, these massive planets interact with their birth disks and gravitationally sculpt the environment of subsequent planet formation. Recent technical advances have enabled observations of the first few giant planets while they’re still forming and interacting with their parent disks. These planets induce large-scale structural changes in the disks alongside their on-going formation. And Dr. Kevin Wagner’s talk will highlight the first images of gas giant forming planetary systems. It will cover how these images are produced\, what goes into their interpretation\, and what they teach us about the formation of systems with giant planets (including our own solar system).  \nBIO:  Dr. Kevin Wagner is a NASA Sagan Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Arizona’s Steward Observatory. After growing up in Kentucky and Ohio\, Dr. Wagner studied at the University of Cincinnati before receiving his Ph.D. at the University of Arizona. His research focuses on directly detecting and studying planets around nearby stars\, such as Alpha Centauri\, with a specific focus on finding and characterizing potentially life-supporting planets and understanding how planetary systems form and evolve.

SUMMARY:Grand Canyon Star Party
DESCRIPTION:Join Tucson Amateur Astronomy Association and the National Park Service for the 32nd annual Star Party. The Star Party will be June 18 – 25\, 2022. We average 50 telescopes for 8 nights. You will see Solar System planets\, Galaxies Far Far Away\, Star Clusters — some with several hundred thousand stars\, Nebulae\, multiple star systems (some with as many as 6 stars)\, and lots more. The skies are so dark you can clearly see the band of the Milky Way overhead. We start with a talk in the Visitor Center Auditorium about an astronomy topic at 8 pm. Observing at the telescopes goes from sunset (about 8 pm) to 11 pm. This event is free and open to anyone inside the Grand Canyon (park entrance fee required).  For additional information\, check out our Grand Canyon Star Party Webpage at: http://tucsonastronomy.org/upcoming-events/grand-canyon-star-party/. or visit the Grand Canyon Star Party webpage at: https://www.nps.gov/grca/planyourvisit/grand-canyon-star-party.htm.
