SUMMARY:July Meeting: Astronomy Simulation Software
DESCRIPTION:ASG Vice President Anwar Al-Mallah will present the latest updates to the astronomy simulation software he has previously shown to the club. These programs will include Universe Sandbox\, Space Engine\, Stellarium\, and Microsoft Flight Simulator. \nNew features in Universe Sandbox include the ability to model climate and cloud cover more accurately. The graphics quality in Space Engine will show improvement since the last presentation\, now being rendered on the latest RTX 30 series GPU. Galaxy collision simulations have also been improved in Universe Sandbox\, and new historical simulations have been added. \nFlybys of new astronomical sites on Earth will be shown in Flight Simulator\, and a demonstration of Stellarium will be given. If time allows\, we will take a quick tour of the Google Sky client and the World Wide Telescope website. \nThe Zoom session will open at 7:00 pm for an informal chat. The presentation will start at 7:30 pm. \nZoom Info\nJoin the Zoom Meeting. \n\nMeeting ID: 895 8057 7207\nPasscode: 748946\nDial by your location\n\n(301) 715-8592 US (Washington\, DC)\n(646) 558-8656 US (New York)\n(312) 626-6799 US (Chicago)\n(669) 900-9128 US (San Jose)\n(253) 215-8782 US (Tacoma)\n(346) 248-7799 US (Houston)\n\n\nFind your local number
