SUMMARY:Reid Park Zoo: Sean Kenney’s Nature Pop!
DESCRIPTION:Part art. Part engineering. Totally amazing!\nAdd a pop of wonder and a pinch of nostalgia to your spring with Sean Kenney’s Nature Pop! Marvel at over 40 wildly creative sculptures made entirely of LEGO® bricks at this exhibition\, included with Zoo admission and free for Zoo members from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. \nProduced by Imagine Exhibitions\, Nature POP! Made with LEGO® bricks showcases 40 brilliantly colored and amazingly created sculptures crafted exclusively with LEGO® pieces — over 800\,000 bricks to be exact! As guests wind their way through the Zoo’s scenic pathways they will encounter playful\, gravity defying masterpieces\, including a towering 7-foot polar bear mother and her cubs\, a prancing fox\, a majestic lion standing on alert\, and intricately detailed dragonfly with light filtering through its outstretched wings. \nSean Kenney\, who has been creating with LEGO bricks for over 20 years was also a former judge on the show “LEGO® Masters.” Sean’s playful works invite guests to explore how everything in nature is also interconnected in fresh\, fun\, and unexpected ways.

SUMMARY:LFDT Phoenix: Enabling Anyone to Build and Operate Decentralized Networks with Hiero
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a meetup exploring Hiero (https://github.com/hiero-ledger)\, an open-source\, vendor-neutral distributed ledger technology (DLT) stack that powers the Hedera Network. In this session\, Hendrik Ebbers (https://github.com/hendrikebbers) will demonstrate how easy it is to deploy a Hiero-based network for either public or private use. \nThe live demo will show how to spin up a network and build a simple application that connects to it using one of the available SDKs. Attendees will learn how an application communicates with the network and submits transactions in real time. \nThis meetup is ideal for developers interested in learning how to deploy decentralized networks and build applications that interact with them using Hiero. \nPlease note: This event is being shared with our entire global community. If you’re interested in this content but can’t attend the event live\, feel free to sign up and we will send you a link to the recording after the meetup is over. \n\n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\nHendrik Ebbers\n\nHendrik Ebbers\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hendrik-ebbers/\nHendrik Ebbers is a software engineer and open-source leader based in Germany. He currently serves as Director of Open Source and Technical Steering Committee member for the Hiero project and is a co-chair of the Technical Steering Committee at the Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust. Hendrik is also a board member of the Eclipse Foundation\, where he actively contributes to several working groups and steering committees\, including initiatives such as Eclipse Adoptium and Jakarta EE. Through his work\, he focuses on advancing open standards\, strengthening open-source collaboration\, and helping grow sustainable developer ecosystems.

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:Lowell Observatory: Astrophotography Program
DESCRIPTION:Take the first step in your astrophotography journey with an intensive course at Lowell Observatory! \nThis 2-hour program accommodates a maximum of 6 guests. Using our 17-inch Planewave CDK Telescope and QSI 683 CCD camera\, you will be taken through the process of imaging two different objects. Then\, we will teach you how to combine\, stack\, and edit the shots into full-color images using a program called Pixinsight. At the end of the course\, you’ll take home digital copies of the two images and all of the raw data to use as you like\, as well as additional resources to aid you in your astrophotography journey! \nMembers of Lowell Observatory will receive a 20% discount on their course fee.

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:Lowell Observatory: Orbits Curiosity Early Learners Camp - Sun: Energy from the Sun
DESCRIPTION:Children will construct and launch a hot air balloon and will also build a device to harness the power of the Sun. \nFun and Learning with STEAM \nCreated for children ages 3 to 6\, these activity-based\, hands-on camps explore science and include STEAM elements. Camps are usually held on the first and third Saturdays of each month unless otherwise noted. Even though there are two classes offered per month\, the same lesson will be taught throughout a given month. \nThese 90-minute camps — led by Lowell educators — occur from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. Parents can explore topics in physics and astronomy with their children. Activities include science investigations\, games\, storytime\, music\, engineering\, art\, and more! Maximum 14 children per camp. \nMembers: $20 per child\nNon-members: $25 per child \nParent attendance is MANDATORY. The prices listed are per session. You may register for one month at a time or for multiple dates.

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.
