It’s a cosmic week at Santa Monica College. “Deep Impacts,” a look at the dramatic effects cosmic collisions have had on Earth’s history will continue at 8 p.m. on Nov. 5 as a part of SMC’s astronomy series.
A guest lecture titled “Huygens: Splashdown on Titan” will take place at 8 p.m. on Nov. 19. Candy Hansen of the Jet Propulsion Lab’s Cassini Mission will talk about the possibility of strange methane seas beneath the clouds of Saturn’s giant moon, Titan.
The feature show and lecture are both preceded by “The Night Sky Show,” which recreates the night sky and provides the latest information on space exploration.
The astronomy shows are held in the John Drescher Planetarium on the second floor of Drescher Hall at 1900 Pico Blvd. The lecture is in science lecture hall, room 140. Tickets are $5 each or $9 for the “double bill,” with discounts for children and senior citizens. For information, call (310) 434-4223 or (310) 434-3000.
