Meet tonight's speaker! Dr. Chenoa Tremblay spends her days searching for alien technology—not with flying saucers, but with giant radio telescopes, high-performance computing, and a lot of signal processing. As a Project Scientist with the SETI Institute and the Breakthrough Listen program, she leads searches for technosignatures using the Very Large Array and MeerKAT telescopes. Her work also includes studying how stars form and developing the next generation of radio astronomy instruments.

See y'all tonight at Bow & Arrow Brewing Co. at 6pm! Come prepped for some alien trivia!

Meet tonight's speaker! Dr. Rick Perley obtained his PhD from University of Maryland in 1977, with a thesis on very low frequency interferometric imaging. He was a postdoc at NRAO (Socorro) from 1977 to 1980, after which he was promoted to staff scientist. He was involved in the early imaging developments with the VLA through the 1970s and 1980s. In the 2000s he was the VLA Expansion Project Scientist, helping with the vast increase in capabilities that this project brought. Since the completion of this project in 2012, he has been working on improving imaging and polarimetry with the array, as well as utilizing it for science.

Meet tonight's speaker! Dr. Samantha "Sam" Garza got her Astronomy PhD at the University of Washington and is now an Education Specialist at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory. She has previously studied the inner arms of the Milky Way, the relationship between how fast stars are forming and annoying dust particles, and (her favorite galaxy) the Whirlpool Galaxy. For her dissertation work, she researched the atmospheres of galaxies to further our understanding of how galaxies evolve over time. She loves serving the public through outreach and has had so much fun traveling the state to work with students. In her free time she enjoys crafting, playing volleyball, hiking, and baking for her friends.
