The Bell Museum's Café Scientifique is a happy hour exchange of ideas about science, environment and popular culture that features experts from a variety of fields on diverse and often provocative topics.
September Topic: The Dazzling Dr. Spillhaus
Are you aware of Dr. Athelstan Spilhaus? He was dean of the Institute of Technology at the University of Minnesota, the founder of the National Sea Grant program, inventor of the skyway system and the bathythermograph (drawings of which grace the Scholars Walk at the U), and author of the Our New Age comic strip that ran weekly for 20 years in the Minneapolis Tribune and was syndicated around the world to delight and inspire 5 million readers with a focus on science. Presenter Sharon Moen, communications coordinator for Minnesota Sea Grant and author of "With Tomorrow in Mind: How Athelstan Spilhaus Turned America Toward the Future", will regale us with stories of Spilhaus' many contributions to science, policy and even public art.
