But people may also feel a connection for another reason.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cAll the elements that are cooked in the core of massive stars and spewed out when those stars explode \u2013 including oxygen, carbon and nitrogen \u2013 are critical elements for our bodies,\u201d said Creighton, director of 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s Manfred Olson Planetarium. \u201cWe literally came from stars. These shared connections are certainly a cause for celebration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">And celebrating is what\u2019s in store three times this month:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mae Jemison, the first African American woman in space, will give <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/studentinvolvement\/campus-traditions\/distinguished-lecture-series-dls\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the Distinguished Lecture<\/a> on Oct. 10 at 7 p.m. in the Wisconsin Room at the 51ÁÔÆæ Student Union. Tickets are required. 51ÁÔÆæ students are admitted free.<\/li>\n<li>A <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/planetarium\/event\/solar-eclipse-viewing-party\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">free viewing party of the partial solar eclipse<\/a> happens on Oct. 14 between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., just after the Panther Prowl, in the Cunningham Hall parking lot at the corner of Cramer Street and Hartford Avenue. Because looking at the eclipse can cause eye damage, free NASA-approved glasses will be available as well as free planetarium shows every 30 minutes starting at 12:30 p.m.<\/li>\n<li>This year marks the 100<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of the first planetarium projector, and 51ÁÔÆæ will join in with <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/planetarium\/event\/centennial-party\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a local event<\/a> on Oct. 21 from 6-8 p.m. at the 51ÁÔÆæ planetarium, 1900 E. 51ÁÔÆæ. Enjoy cake, planetarium stargazing shows and rooftop telescope viewing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>The partial eclipse: a moon shadow<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sometimes, when the moon orbits Earth, the moon comes between the sun and Earth, casting a shadow on the Earth and partially covering the sun. This shadow affects a very small portion of the Earth \u2013 so, although a solar eclipse can happen somewhere on Earth every year, it is a rare event for a given location. The next one visible in the Midwest occurs in April 2024, but there won\u2019t be another one until 2044.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">This extraordinary phenomenon provides views of something mysterious that we can\u2019t see unless the bright light of the sun is blocked, Creighton said. With specialized equipment, observers can see the sun\u2019s outer atmosphere, known as the corona.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scientists want to know more about the corona, Creighton said. \u201cThe sun, at its surface, is about 6,000 degrees and you would expect that the farther you get from the sun \u2013 the nuclear fusion furnace \u2013 the cooler it would be,\u201d she said. \u201cYet the corona can get up to 2 million degrees and we don\u2019t yet understand that. What&#8217;s giving that outer layer that kind of energy?\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Such a public \u201cgee-whiz\u201d moment fueled the largest event hosted by the 51ÁÔÆæ planetarium in 2017 during a near-total solar eclipse that attracted an estimated 2,700 people. At this event, the planetarium staff is prepared with 10,000 NASA glasses.<\/p>\n<h3>Centennial of planetariums<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">For urban dwellers, city lights often interfere with a clear view of the night sky. So how can people view thousands of stars without a telescope and from a comfy reclining chair in a darkened room?<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The answer, of course, is a planetarium, where a projector casts images of the planets, moon and stars onto a domed ceiling,\u00a0creating an accurate representation of the nighttime sky.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The first modern planetarium projector was built 1923 in Munich, Germany. By 1930, the first planetarium in the U.S. had opened \u2013 the Adler Planetarium in Chicago.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Creighton estimates that over the last century a billion people have seen the \u201cartificial heavens,\u201d through this resource, spreading both knowledge and wonder about our universe. At the Manfred Olson Planetarium at 51ÁÔÆæ, the visitor count is estimated at 700,000 in the facility\u2019s 57-year history.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Like a time machine, planetarium projectors show what the sky looks like at different times and from different places with mechanisms for controlling latitude, daily and annual celestial motion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Support for building 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s planetarium in 1965 came from a wave of federal funding during the \u201cspace race\u201d of the 1950s and 1960s, after the Soviets launched the satellite Sputnik.<\/p>\n<h3>Looking ahead<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Today, the aim is to reach new and diverse audiences, Creighton said. \u201cIt\u2019s important that a planetarium serves the whole community, not just some sliver of it. So, it\u2019s about knitting astronomy with cultural aspects so that you hook audiences in different ways,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Some examples of the planetarium\u2019s hybrid cultural programming have included a show for Black History Month, \u201cUnder African Skies,\u201d during which audiences could appreciate that the African continent is so large that different stars are visible in Morocco than in Mozambique. The program \u201cAsian Celebrations\u201d explained how the lunar calendar is used to determine major festivals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">And, even though its projector isn\u2019t a digital, computer-driven model, Creighton said that sometimes, old-school delivers a better experience. 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s optomechanical projector is dominated by the starball, which has an array of lenses, each of which focuses light on the dome ceiling to show a very crisp, realistic night sky. In fact, as the planetarium gears up its fundraising to replace the aging projector in the next few years, Creighton said, they will choose an updated optomechanical projector.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cBut what really makes the 51ÁÔÆæ planetarium special,\u201d she said, \u201cis there\u2019s an astronomer describing what the audience is looking at in 3D. Live programming that\u2019s interactive and accessible is hard to come by. Our best communication happens in person rather than just popping in a video.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Astronomy is one of the most popular sciences, in part, because looking at the night sky is universal, something we all share, Jean Creighton says.
