--Apple-Mail-11-397712446 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit The October Minas Astronomy Group meeting is Saturday, October 15, 7 p.m. at Acadia University, Huggins Science Hall, Room 202 (Huggins is the second building on the right as one goes up University Avenue (opposite the gymnasium). Enter by the corner door to the right of the main entrance. Once inside, enter the stairwell on your immediate right and go up one floor. Then keep right! Speaker: Dr. Roy Bishop Title: The Rainbow or: Refraction of the light of the nearest star by spheres of hydrogen oxide in the gaseous envelope of the third planet Of all atmospheric phenomena, the rainbow is the most striking --- because of its symmetry, colours, and unexpected occurrence. References to the rainbow occur throughout recorded history: in literature, in science, and in advertising. Progress in understanding what a rainbow is, and is not, have occupied some of the greatest minds over the centuries. My talk will be illustrated with several images of rainbows, and will be accompanied by a demonstration of the little-known secret that results in a rainbow. = = ======================================================================== Patrick Kelly Director of Computer Facilities = = ======================================================================== Faculty of Architecture and Planning Dalhousie University = = ======================================================================== MAIL COURIER PO Box 15000 5410 Spring Garden Road Halifax, Nova Scotia B3H 4R2 Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada Canada = = ======================================================================== Phone:(902) 494-3294 FAX:(902) 423-6672 E-mail:patrick.kelly@dal.ca = = ======================================================================== --Apple-Mail-11-397712446 Content-Type: text/html; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html><body style=3D"word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; = -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div><div style=3D"word-wrap: = break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: = after-white-space; "><div style=3D"margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; = margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face=3D"Times New Roman" = size=3D"5" style=3D"font: 18.0px Times New Roman">The October Minas = Astronomy Group meeting is </font></div><p style=3D"margin: 0.0px = 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><font face=3D"Times New Roman" size=3D"5" = style=3D"font: 18.0px Times New Roman"> </font></p><div = style=3D"margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; = margin-left: 0px; "><font face=3D"Times New Roman" size=3D"5" = style=3D"font: 18.0px Times New Roman">Saturday, October 15, 7 p.m. = at Acadia University, Huggins Science Hall, Room = 202</font></div><div style=3D"margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; = margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal = 18px/normal 'Times New Roman'; min-height: 21px; "><br></div><div = style=3D"margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; = margin-left: 0px; "><font face=3D"Times New Roman" size=3D"5" = style=3D"font: 18.0px Times New Roman">(Huggins is the second building = on the <i>right</i> as one goes up University Avenue (opposite the = gymnasium).
