Today was a day of lectures for us. We have the wonderful opportunity to have two men on board with us to make our passage across the Atlantic even better. One is an Astronomer/Naturalist/Artist, he is David Aguilar. He works as the Director of Public Affairs and Science Information at the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Mass. This is the largest astronomical research center in the world. His program is called The 11 planets. We went to his first lecture today and he was wonderful.
The other lecturer is Zvi Dor-Ner. He is a executive producer and author. His accomplishments in television documentaries are too long to list. He has was International Emmies for his work. He is presenting his studies of Christopher Columbus while we are on the ship and other works he has done that have been on PBS. Very interesting man. He brought his 10 year old daughter with him, so Kathleen and Nicky have a ping-pong challenger after her dad's lectures.
Between Cindy from trivia working for NASA for 30 years in her field of Chemistry, and these two speakers, Kathleen and Nicky's have an opportunity to improve their scope in science for sure!
