FAMILY FUN CALENDAR

You’ll meet reluctant intergalactic war heroes and grieving widows, explore strange worlds and learn about the science that informs the fiction. Adler astronomers Mark Hammergren, Mark Subba Rao and Maria Weber will talk with local Chicago authors Sue Burke (Semiosis), Michael Moreci (Black Star Renegades), and Lori Rader-Day (Under a Dark Sky) about their new novels and the inspiration they drew from the stars. Pick up one (or three) of these books and join the discussion. 

Event Cost: Free with admission (Dec. 1 is an Illinois Free Day at Adler). 

Event Times: 11 a.m.-3 p.m.
