Dr. Ajay Kothari, Tuesday, 9-23-25 (9.72MB; download) -- Our program for today consisted of a virtual gallery tour of Dr. Ajay Kothari’s art exhibit at the Antique Den gallery in Fairfax, Va. Gallery owner Kei, along with Dr. Kothari, introduced the exhibit featuring approximately 40 paintings. They discussed our online Zoom tour. Kei presented the format for the program, helped in doing a gallery panorama of all the paintings plus she handled the smart phone camera while AJ explained various paintings, discussing his techniques, themes, and prices for each painting, all while sharing his artistic background and dedication to his work. Our Space Show audience inquired about the success of the exhibition, including strong attendance. Strong positive feedback was reported. In his talk at the beginning of the “tour”, AJ connected the dots with his artwork, vision and space. Due to the nature of several of his paintings, Dr. Kothari explored topics like space exploration and science and humanity.

John Batchelor Hotel Mars, Weds, 9-17-25 Dr. Nestor Espinoza (2.22MB; download) -- r. Espinoza discussed the exciting discovery of TRAPPIST-1e, a planet in the habitable zone of its star, using the James Webb Space Telescope. He explained that they are conducting observations to determine if the planet has an atmosphere and, if so, its composition. He described the transit method they are using to study the planet, which involves observing how the planet blocks starlight and analyzing how the atmosphere interacts with this light.
