SCIENCE LECTURE
Speaker: Dr. Tesla Jeltema (UC Santa Cruz)
Title: The History of the Cosmos (and our understanding of it)
Abstract: There is strong evidence that our Universe is roughly 13.8 billion years old, that it has expanded and evolved from the Big Bang to today, forming in the process stars, galaxies, and a rich network of larger-scale structures. I will review the history of our universe and its composition, including dark matter and dark energy. With the lens of an observational astrophysicist, I will discuss some of the major observations that led us to this picture and how current and future experiments will enable us to further our understanding of the cosmos.

MSAA 2025 State Field Tournament | Saratoga Archery Club
Jul 12–Jul 13, 2025 (UTC-6)ENDED
Saratoga
The MSAA State Field Tournament is the best opportunity for an archer to demonstrate a well-rounded ability to not only shoot but to endure. The Field tournament brings together the aspects of a 3D tournament and a target tournament. Like a 3D tournament, a course is walked and at shooting stations, shots are taken at targets that vary in distance. An important difference between the 3D tournament and the Field tournament is that multiple arrows are shot at the same target, that at the end of the day add up to more than 100 arrows shot! Online Registration Fees: The additional fees above the normal registration cost are the costs to process the credit card payments, and are strictly a pass-through cost. The MSAA does not gain these fees in any way.
