Astronomy on Tap Tucson #108: Massive Binaries & Supermassive Black Holes

Tucson’s local flavor of Astronomy on Tap, Space Drafts, is excited to present its 108th edition! On tap this month, we have talks from two Steward Observatory professors: Dr. Jianwei Lyu will be delving into the mysteries and marvels of supermassive black holes and Dr. Mathieu Renzo will be exploring the explosive lives of massive binary stars.

Mysteries and Marvels of Supermassive Black Holes – Jianwei Lyu & The Explosive Life of Massive Binaries – Mathieu Renzo We’ll be out on the patio of the Toole location of Borderlands Brewing Company (119 E. Toole Ave, Tucson AZ, accessible via stairs and a ramp) and livestreaming at bit.ly/SpaceDrafts107 at 7:30pm MST on June 17. There is street parking near the venue, and several bus lines run to the Toole/7th Ave. bus stop right next door. If you’re feeling up for a bit of walking, the Sun Link street car runs to Congress/6th Ave (if going westbound) or Broadway/Church (if going eastbound), about half a mile away from Borderlands.
