Speaker #2: Gertrude Bishop
Topic: Contemplations about the Universe
Summary: The astronomer Neil DeGrasse Tyson put it this way:
“At one time or another every one of us has looked up at the night sky and wondered: What does it all mean? How does it all work? And, what is my place in the universe?
I will share some of my thoughts about the universe, and invite you to share your insights, as stargazers.
