The Arecibo Observatory: Exploring Space from Puerto Rico Public lecture by Dr. Alessandra Abe Pacini Scientist at the Arecibo Observatory Space and Atmospheric Sciences (Florida Space Institute – University of Central Florida) CTEQ School Monday - June 25, 2018 7:30 – 9:00 PM Anfiteatro de Enfermería Universidad de Puerto Rico-Mayagüez Dr. Pacini is a Brazilian Space Physicist who moved to Puerto Rico to investigate the Sun and the Earth’s atmosphere using the Arecibo Observatory, the world’s most sensitive radar and largest-aperture telescope for astrophysical, planetary, and atmospheric studies. The lecture will include an overview of the history and status of Puerto Rico’s most famous scientific facility. Dr. Pacini will also discuss future opportunities for interdisciplinary research studies at the Arecibo Observatory and introduce the NEW Arecibo message.
