SUMMARY:The University of Arizona: Richard F. Caris Mirror Lab Tour
DESCRIPTION:Explore the cutting-edge of astronomical innovation on this 90-minute guided tour of the Richard F. Caris Mirror Lab at the University of Arizona. Learn how pioneering engineering\, optical science\, and precision manufacturing come together to create the world’s largest and most advanced telescope mirrors—each 8.4 meters (27 feet) in diameter. \nLocated beneath the U of A’s football stadium\, the Mirror Lab is the birthplace of mirrors for the Giant Magellan Telescope\, a revolutionary new instrument with a 25-meter primary mirror composed of seven of our 8.4-meter segments. This next generation of telescopes will transform astronomy—probing the early universe\, revealing the formation of the first stars\, and potentially detecting signs of life on distant exoplanets. \nThe tour begins at the historic Steward Observatory\, U of A’s first research department\, established in 1917. After an introductory presentation in our iconic white-brick dome\, we’ll walk to the Mirror Lab for an up-close look at the unique processes involved—from melting glass to precision polishing and optical testing. \nJoin us and discover how the University of Arizona is shaping the future of space exploration and astronomical discovery.

SUMMARY:⭐Arizona Game and Fish Department: Citizen Science Case Study - Land Snails in Arizona
DESCRIPTION:Citizen or community science is a way for the public to get involved in science by incorporating volunteers in different aspects of the research process. For years\, the Arizona Game and Fish Department has relied on volunteers to help us carry out our mission to conserve Arizona’s diverse wildlife resources. Since April is Citizen Science Month\, we decided to host a series of webinars designed for educators to highlight some of these projects that depend on volunteers. \nIn this session\, Jeff Sorensen\, the Department’s invertebrates program manager\, will be joining us to discuss the Land Snails of Arizona project which recruits the help of hikers and other outdoor recreationists to submit snail observations. Come learn about how our community is helping us better understand desert snails. \nThis FREE webinar will last approximately 45 minutes. It will include a short presentation followed by a Q&A. Then\, our educators will briefly highlight related resources you can bring back to your students. Participants will also receive a professional development certificate. \nPlease use the Zoom form to register: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_RySDh3tRQuSGfKWse1ddXw \n  \nPart of Greater Phoenix City Nature Challenge 2026 \n \nArizona SciTech Festival Season is here! We hope to see you in many of the Festival’s events all over Arizona. Check out the calendar!

SUMMARY:City of Scottsdale: Stargazing with Telescope Astrophotography
DESCRIPTION:Experience the cosmos like never before with our three-part SeeStar S50 astronomy series\, designed to make stargazing simple\, inspiring\, and hands-on for all skill levels. \nBegin with a daytime introduction and live demo where you will learn the basics of astrophotography and discover how this compact\, app-based telescope opens the universe to everyone. As night falls\, watch the SeeStar S50 in action during a live setup and real-time photo capture\, showcasing just how easy and rewarding astrophotography can be\, even for complete beginners. Finally\, take the controls yourself in an interactive session where you will capture your own celestial images\, learn image-stacking techniques for clarity\, and explore AI art tools to transform your astrophotography into unique\, impressionist-style space artwork you can keep or purchase. \nThis is more than a class; it is your gateway to the stars.

SUMMARY:The University of Arizona: Richard F. Caris Mirror Lab Tour
DESCRIPTION:Explore the cutting-edge of astronomical innovation on this 90-minute guided tour of the Richard F. Caris Mirror Lab at the University of Arizona. Learn how pioneering engineering\, optical science\, and precision manufacturing come together to create the world’s largest and most advanced telescope mirrors—each 8.4 meters (27 feet) in diameter. \nLocated beneath the U of A’s football stadium\, the Mirror Lab is the birthplace of mirrors for the Giant Magellan Telescope\, a revolutionary new instrument with a 25-meter primary mirror composed of seven of our 8.4-meter segments. This next generation of telescopes will transform astronomy—probing the early universe\, revealing the formation of the first stars\, and potentially detecting signs of life on distant exoplanets. \nThe tour begins at the historic Steward Observatory\, U of A’s first research department\, established in 1917. After an introductory presentation in our iconic white-brick dome\, we’ll walk to the Mirror Lab for an up-close look at the unique processes involved—from melting glass to precision polishing and optical testing. \nJoin us and discover how the University of Arizona is shaping the future of space exploration and astronomical discovery.
