The next regular meeting of the Blomidon Naturalist Society will be held Mo=
nday, December 9, 2013 at 7:30 PM in Room BAC241 of the Beveridge Arts Cent=
re, Acadia University, Wolfville.

The meeting is open to the public.

The feature talk will be Rocks from the Sky: Small, Large =96 Good, Bad by =
Roy Bishop. Earth itself is composed of rocks from the sky. Presently milli=
ons of such bodies are still in the sky, several tonnes of which land on Ea=
rth every day. Occasionally one of these is large enough to make headlines,=
 such as the Chelyabinsk meteor last February. Large visitors to the inner =
Solar System that reach naked-eye visibility, such as Comet Panstarrs last =
spring, also make the news every few years. The geologic record makes it vi=
rtually certain that some of the large objects still out there have Earth's=
 name on them. Whether or not we can prevent them from impacting Earth depe=
nds=85

A native of Wolfville, Dr. Bishop is a graduate of Acadia, McMaster and the=
 University of Manitoba, and Professor Emeritus of Physics at Acadia. Dr. B=
ishop is also a founding member, a past-president, and an honourary life me=
mber of the Blomidon Naturalists Society, and a Past-President of the Royal=
 Astronomical Society of Canada. Last year, he was inducted into Nova Scoti=
a=92s Science Hall of Fame. Following his sojourn on the third planet he in=
tends to visit asteroid 6901, which the International Astronomical Union ha=
s named =93Roybishop=94. He and his wife, Gertrude, have three children and=
 seven grandchildren.
