June 21st Cosmic Walk and the Story of the Universe at Glen Tana

June 21, 2025 5:30 pm

As fading light becomes late evening and Spring becomes Summer, come glimpse “the original world, the one that makes us, rather than the one we make.” Walk the 13.8 billion years of earth’s history and experience the “shaping power that curves a comet’s path and fills the owls throat with song.”
