SUMMARY:2018 Geek2Geek - January
DESCRIPTION:Colliding Neutron Stars: Is Fact Stranger than Fiction?\n\n\n\nJoin us for Geek2Geek as we explore the cosmos from Huntsville ... gamma-ray bursts\, gravitational waves\, and more. Huntsville played a role in the discovery of gravitational waves\, which secured the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics for Weiss\, Barish and Thorne\, three of the founders of LIGO.\n\n\n\nGeek2Geek is a lightning-round after-hours tech talks with craft beer/wine/food and a twist. Presenters have only 5 minutes and 15 slides (inspired by the Pecha Kucha format   20 seconds per slide) to present their topics.\n\n\n\nConfirmed Speakers:\n\n	Dr. Tyson Littenberg\, Astrophysicist\, NASA Marshall Space Flight Center\, and member of the LIGO Science Collaboration\n	Dr. Colleen A. Wilson-Hodge\, Principal Investigator\, Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) NASA Marshall Space Flight Center\n	Dr. Michael Briggs\, Assistant Director\, Center for Space Plasma and Aeronomic Research (CSPAR)\, UAH \n	Dr. Adam Goldstein\, Astrophysicist\, USRA at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center\n	Dr. Peter Veres\, Postdoctoral Fellow\, UAH\n	Ms. Rachel Hamburg\, Graduate Research Assistant\, UAH\n\nThis event is open to employees in CRP\, CRP Applications\, and Thornton Research Park.
