Free After-Hour Cafe & Lecture Series at the American Museum of Natural History

For all you science and sci-fi nerds (myself included), the Museum of Natural History is starting a monthly lecture series/cafe mingling event that seems similar to Brooklyn’s Secret Science Club meetups.

From the press release:

Science enthusiasts are invited to enjoy the Museum after hours with music, drinks, and thought-provoking conversation at the kick-off of the new monthly series SciCafe.  Surrounded by magnificent rock and mineral specimens in the Gottesman Hall of Planet Earth, guests will have a chance to mingle as AMNH astrophysicist Ben Oppenheimer discusses exoplanets, or planets outside our solar system, as well as his search for a hypothetical Earth-twin and signs of habitability in nearby planetary systems. Oppenheimer will also explain his role as principal investigator on the Lyot Project, which aims to reveal how planets and solar systems are formed.

The American Museum of Natural History’s new after-hours series SciCafe features cutting-edge science, cocktails, and conversation. SciCafe takes place on the first Wednesday of every month.

Info below:

WHEN: Wednesday, October 7, 7 pm
WHERE: Gottesman Hall of Planet Earth
American Museum of Natural History
