Caltech Events is @Caltech's public events program. We offer the campus & community a gateway to world-class Scientists, Artists & Speakers. #BeckmanAuditorium
This February, experience curiosity in action with Caltech Public Events: a Watson Lecture on sustainable battery chemistries, a conversation with alumni on the state of AI, an architectural tour of Caltech, and more: caltech.short.gy/TW-February…
What do we know about planets outside of our solar system? Are there really planets orbiting the nearest star system to ours, Alpha Centauri? On 10/27, head to Dog Haus in Old Town Pasadena to find out at the next Astro on Tap. Learn more: events.caltech.edu/calendar/…
Will people ever be able to live on Mars? How can balloons send telescopes to the edge of space? Find out at the next Astronomy on Tap with @CaltechAstro on Sept 15: events.caltech.edu/calendar/…
Join us next Monday for Astronomy on Tap, featuring talks on these topics by NASA JPL Engineers Adam Steltzner and Susan Redmond! Also, telescopes, pub trivia, and live music by Jason Achilles! See you guys next week!
On Monday, join @CaltechAstro for another Astro on Tap at Dog Haus Biergarten. Learn about detecting dark matter and how to study the universe using gravitational waves before pub trivia, live music, and more. Learn more: events.caltech.edu/calendar/…
What is dark matter, and how can we detect it? How can we use the ripples in spacetime known as gravitational waves to study the universe around us? Join us Monday, May 12th our next Astronomy on Tap:

On 4/11, join us for a webinar as Caltech experts discuss what ash, soil, & water samples tell us about the amount of lead released into the environment during the LA fires. Learn more: scienceexchange.caltech.edu/…
The women of Caltech are pushing the limits of discovery—and inviting you to join them at public events. Today, we celebrate their vision, their perseverance, and the discoveries shaping our future. #InternationalWomensDay
What's big, covered in water, yet 100 times drier than the Sahara Desert? It's not a riddle, it's the Moon! We know the Moon has H2O, but many questions remain. NASA's Lunar Trailblazer will help find answers as part of its mission to map the Moon's water. go.nasa.gov/4iemHvO

What do black holes and neutron stars look like in x-rays? How do scientists take x-ray images of the night sky? Check out @CaltechAstro’s Astro on Tap to learn more over beer, pub trivia, live music, and more. Details: events.caltech.edu/calendar/…
Thank you, David Delgadillo, for presenting your story to hundreds of local students! At his November presentation, David shared how he uses powerful microscopes to discover new medicines in nature. Watch now: piped.video/Tn4MvcXTlXw
Tonight, December 4, learn about the recently launched @EuropaClipper mission with Robert Pappalardo, Clipper’s Project Scientist at @NASAJPL, which Caltech manages for NASA. Register today: events.caltech.edu/calendar/…
We had a blast last night operating telescopes and discussing astronomy with the public at the Caltech Watson Lecture. We viewed Saturn and the Ring Nebula, prior to a stellar talk on neutron stars by Professor Katerina Chatziioannou. See you guys next time!
👩🔬 Happy #NationalSTEMDay! Every day, Caltech is committed to supporting outreach to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers. Our public events offer opportunities for the community to explore their curiosity with Caltech’s students and faculty.
David Delgadillo’s family farm sparked his desire to understand the synergy between chemistry and life. At Caltech, David’s curiosity has led him to discover new compounds using electron diffraction. Stay tuned for his talk on YouTube. More: events.caltech.edu/series/sc…
Last month, biochemistry professor Bil Clemons delivered the first Watson Lecture of the season! The local community enjoyed the return of the festive preshow before hearing about Clemons’s work. Watch the lecture now on YouTube: piped.video/wOQXIeG8oy8
Music to urge conversations around climate change. Caltech's Opening Doors presents HomeCare by @ourTonality, in collab with Getty's @PST_ART. Then, join a post-show conversation with Caltech's Lucy Jones and Tonality founder/director Alexander Lloyd Blake pst.caltech.edu/events/openi…
Calling all educators! In Science Journeys, Caltech postdoctoral scholars Melissa, David, and Jess will share what sparked their curiosity for organic chemistry, medicine, and neuroscience. Free, but registration is required. Register your classroom today: bit.ly/4gzrrwb
Oct 18 & 19: Taiwanese choreographer Huang Yi and KUKA, a robot conceptualized and programmed by Yi, weave together the art of modern dance and the science of mechanical engineering as part of Getty’s @pst_art. Buy tickets today:

Escape the LA city lights at dark sky festivals at Great Basin and Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks. Both events will feature gatherings and keynotes from @CaltechAstro. Learn more: astro.caltech.edu/outreach
How do we look for life outside of Earth? According to former NASA chief scientist James L. Green, it starts by looking at the evolution of Earth and the Sun. Hear more from Green tomorrow, 6/5: events.caltech.edu/calendar/…
