Think big - REALLY BIG! Take a fantastic voyage to the world of dinosaurs at KNME’s third “Science Café,” on Saturday, May 13, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science. Featured six times a year at various locations, Science Café is a new and exciting place to learn about science. The concept is to show clips from an episode of NOVA scienceNOW, with an expert on that topic on hand to answer questions, and have an open discussion with the audience in a cafe style atmosphere.
Take part - or listen to the discussion swirling around you. It’s fun, it’s casual and it’s laid back.
This month, enjoy coffee and refreshments, and watch part of an episode of NOVA scienceNOW discussing Tyrannosaurus Rex - and how an astonishing adolescent growth spurt accounts for his enormous size.
Then, join in a discussion about dinosaurs - in New Mexico - including T. Rex and dinosaurs you may not know were in his family, with Dr. Thomas Williamson, Curator of Paleontology, New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science.
Admission for the event is free, but seats are limited to the first 80 people. To RSVP call, (505) 841-2872.
