SUMMARY:Teen Science Cafe | Answering Astronomical Questions with Python Code
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered how common conjunctions like the “great conjunction” on December 21\, 2020 happen? How often is there a full moon on Halloween? Using clues in the book “The Martian” and what we know about launch opportunities to Mars\, when would Mark Whatney’s mission take place?   \n\n\n\nWe’ll chat with Tony Rice for this Teen Science Cafe; in writing for WRAL on astronomy topics\, he frequently creates python scripts to answer very specific astronomy questions (like the ones above). Tony will walk us through some of the code\, and then we will live code\, test\, and get an answer to an astronomy question. \n\n\n\nALL attendees must register at the link below.

SUMMARY:Carolina Science Cafe: National Biomechanics Day and the Science of Skipping
DESCRIPTION:WE’VE GONE VIRTUAL! \n\n\n\nWe can’t meet in person right now for cafes\, but we still want to connect you with scientists\, researchers and guest speakers! \n\n\n\nJoin us for the next Carolina Science Cafe on April 8 via Zoom. Carolina Science Cafe: National Biomechanics Day and the Science of Skipping will feature East Carolina University’s Leroy T. Walker Distinguished Professor of Kinesiology\, Dr. Paul DeVita. Dr. DeVita will share his insights into human locomotion\, why he founded National Biomechanics Day\, and what surprising benefits he’s learned about skipping. Is it better than walking for exercise?
