Finally, make plans to join us on Friday, February 4 for “Real People, Big Astronomy with Dr. Sian Proctor” in BASF Planetarium. We will have refreshments starting at 5:45 PM, followed by a FREE live Zoom program with Dr. Proctor at 6:00 PM.
A geoscientist, explorer, space artist and astronaut, Dr. Proctor was the mission pilot for the Inspiration4 all-civilian orbital mission to space, the first of its kind. We will learn about her varied career path and three-day mission in Earth orbit, in which Dr. Proctor became the first African American female pilot to fly in space.
PLEASE NOTE: This event is being limited to 50 visitors and masks are required. Extra seating will be available to facilitate social distancing.
In the spirit of Women’s History Month, the Brazosport Planetarium investigates the story of how women not only entered, but changed the field of astronomy. Watch the March three-part series now! ⬇️
