March 14th, 2012 from 2-5 p.m. – Silver Science
The South Florida Science Museum presents a special afternoon for adults and retirees to explore space, astronomy and how it really effects your every “day”. Cost is only $5.00 and includes a complimentary planetarium ticket, refreshments and Museum admission! Special guest, Gary Wasserstein, a retired Board Certified Radiologist, will host a discussion of the science and history of the development of our present day calendar. It’s a complex conglomeration that has developed over millennia using a combination of astronomical cycles, astrology, religious doctrine, superstition and a touch of political intrigue.
