General news
----------
July is a 'lean' month with so many astronomy centers in summer
recess. In some cases it's just tradition to knock off the events for the
summer, even tho there is no compelling reason to suspend them . For
example, the talks at SIBL on Manhattan ended in June, to resume in
September. The library and its staff operate all year round.
I adjusted the entries which recur on different days during the
month to lower the chance of missing them. For example, the Governors
Island tours are on every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. I put a
distinct entry on the first instance of all three days.
Columbia University Observatory started this year running its
public starviewings thru the summer. In past years they ran only
during the school year. The July session is on the 20th.
The New York City Center for Space Science Education, noted in the
June 2007 NYC Events, stepped out for a while. It has no public
activities yet, but is considering them on the future. It is an
internal part of the NYC Dept of Education for visiting school groups.
Associated with the Center is a newly constructed Challenger
Learning Center, which as yet hasn't announced its activities. It
could, but not for sure, be similar to the upstate Lower Hudson
Challenger Learning Center, a member of NYC Events. When the two
centers offer public events, NYC Events will carry them.
Event news
--------
The 'Bodies' exhibit at South Street Seaport got an other
extension! It now runs thru September 3rd. The attendance is still
strong after about eight months run in the City!
I hear rumors that the humans are replaced every so often as they
'wear out'. Not that I believe this tale, but it seems that the pieces are rearranged from time to time. Anyway, 'Bodies' is there for you
to, uh, take in.
Please mind that while children get a reduced admission, they
