Featuring Dr. Michelle Francl, and the latest news of the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope! Just for our paying members: on the next Full Moon, January 28, a week from when we are posting this, we’ll be holding our regular on-line meetup where we get to know and chat with each other, and with astronomers from the Vatican Observatory. This month will feature Dr. Michelle M. Francl, a chemistry professor at Bryn Mawr College (where she has been on the faculty since 1986) and an Adjunct Scholar of the Vatican Observatory. She is a quantum chemist who has developed theoretical methods for computational chemistry and who is interested in the structures of molecules that behave in ways that chemists might not predict they do. She is interested in the philosophy and history of chemistry, and her essays on science, culture and policy appear regularly in Nature Chemistry. She was elected a Fellow of the American Chemical Society in 2009. Michelle is also a theologian whose reflections on trying to live a contemplative life in the midst of the everyday chaos that comes with being a teacher, wife and mother can be found in a number of print and online venues. Along with various devotional essays and books, she gives the occasional retreat; and she blogs on life, laundry, prayer and God at Quantum Theology. And she’s the only person I know who has tasted heavy water! What date? Thursday, January 28: this is Full Moon in Tucson, which occurs around noon, Tucson time. What time? As before, these meetups will happen around lunch time in North America: in particular, 10 am Tucson time, which is NOON pm Eastern Standard Time.
