Join us for stargazing at Pioneer Works for “Spirituality in the Age of Science: A Conversation With Alan Lightman”, Thursday, March 23, 2023. Doors open at 7 PM, lecture starts at 8 PM with stargazing to follow (weather permitting).
Gazing at the stars, falling in love, or listening to music, we sometimes feel a transcendent connection with a cosmic unity and things larger than ourselves. But these experiences are not easily understood by science, which holds that all things can be explained in terms of atoms and molecules. Is there space in our scientific worldview for these spiritual experiences?
