Yukon Centre: Phil Plait - Beyond Northern Lights (WEBEX)

Join the Yukon Centre with special guest Dr. Phil Plait from 10:00pm–midnight (EDT). Come discover the mysteries of our northern skies and what can be seen when the northern lights can’t. Impress your guests with interpretation of the northern lights and wow them with your knowledge of what lies beyond.

Your moderator for the evening will be Jaclyn Semple, BSc, MSc of the Yukon College, and the panel discussion will be animated by Dr. Phil Plait (aka the Bad Astronomer), and Dr. Christa Van Laerhoven, Planetary Scientist at the University of British Columbia.

Due to limitations in bandwidth in the Yukon, no video, or audio will be permitted by the WebEx participants. If you, or your group, has a question, we will ask you to send it via the WebEx chat, and we will ask the question to the presenter(s). All participants will see the PowerPoint presentations, and hear the exchange in the Yukon Beringia Interpretive Centre and the Old Fire Hall.
