Today, New Mexico State University Astronomy Professor Kristian Finlator treats us to an exploration of space related science. We touch on current and historical views of the science of time, space, the big bang, the expanding universe, light, gravity, dark matter, dark energy, and more.
We also give meaningful consideration to how we think about time and space, and the importance of using accurate language when exploring these topics. It’s time to make sure all regional artists and art enthusiasts are registered to vote and informed about the candidates and issues. Greg Smith’s guests will be from the nonpartisan League of Women Voters of Southern New Mexico: current president, Jo Galvan Nash; immediate past president of LWVSNM and current co-president of the LWV of New Mexico, Kathy Brook; and speaking for the League on voter registration, Rebecca Courtney. A photo is included of Jo and Kathy. I grew up in Denver and still go back every summer to visit my sister, nephews and grandnieces in Aurora, Colorado. And so, my ears perked up recently when I heard Aurora being paired with Springfield, Ohio, as the two most egregious examples of immigration run amok.
I’ve never been to Springfield, but clearly the two are very different. Springfield is a town of 58,000 people in the Rust Belt of northern Ohio, about 80 miles west of Cincinnati. Aurora is essentially a part of Denver. If not for the city limit signs, it would be difficult to tell when you leave one city and enter the other. Lisa Lucca has a lively conversation with Pam Houston about the upcoming high-stakes election and her new book Without Exception: Reclaiming Abortion, Personhood, and Freedom - a small book about a very big issue: women's choice to live true to who they are, including agency over their bodies. Stuart Kelter interviews Thomas Schaller and Paul Waldman, co-authors of Rural White Rage: The Threat to American Democracy. Tom Schaller is a professor of political science at the University of Maryland in Baltimore and is the author of four books on national politics. His commentaries have appeared in major newspapers, as well as in radio and television interviews. He has given lectures on American elections in 19 countries on behalf of the U.S. State Department. Paul Waldman is a journalist and opinion writer, whose commentaries have appeared in dozen of major newspapers, magazines and digital media. He is also the author of four previous books on media and politics.
