Join us in the Lohman Planetarium to celebrate International Women’s Day with the critically acclaimed Hidden Figures.

This event includes a bonus presentation by ERAU’s Dr. Ashley Lear and graduate student Kayla Taylor on women in astronomy as they delivered it at the 2022 International Astronautical Congress in Paris.
