June 5th Meeting An Introduction to "Pulsars: Enigmatic Cosmic Lighthouses" with Evan Lewis

Join us in-person OR on Zoom for a presentation by Evan Lewis on, "Pulsars: Enigmatic Cosmic Lighthouses." Pulsars are incredibly dense neutron stars formed from the collapsed cores of massive stars after supernova explosions. A single teaspoon of their material would weigh as much as Mount Everest, and they often rotate several times per second—some even hundreds of times! They also have magnetic fields far stronger than anything humans can create.
