Near the turn of the 21st century we discovered that our solar system is but one of countless others. Where did these planets come from? What ar e their fates\, and ours? Dr. Chiang will describe the life cycle of plane ts\, how they are born and die and are born again. The story follows micro scopic grains of dust\, from the dark and icy clouds of the Milky Way\, to the fiery winds from planets burning in the glare of their stars. \n \nA bout the speaker:\nEugene Chiang is a Professor of Astronomy and of Earth and Planetary Science at UC Berkeley. He is a theoretical astrophysicist w ith interests in all things planetary\, from planet formation to orbital d ynamics to planetary atmospheres. He has served as Chair of the Berkeley D epartment of Astronomy\, is an elected Fellow of the American Academy of A rts and Sciences\, and is the recipient of the Berkeley Distinguished Teac hing Award\, the highest award for teaching on the UC campus. \n\n------- -----------------------------------\nFoothill College is just off the El M onte Road exit from Freeway 280 in Los Altos. \n\nFor directions and pa rking information\, see: https://foothill.edu/parking/ \nFor a campus map \, to find the Smithwick Theater (Bldg. 1000)\, see: https://foothill.edu/ map/ \n\nThe lecture is co-sponsored by: \n\n* The Foothill College Sc ience\, Tech\, Engineering & Math Division \n* The SETI Institute \n* Th e Astronomical Society of the Pacific \n* The University of California Ob servatories (including Lick Observatory).
