February 22, 2024 sea day

I actually wanted to get the Sri Lanka visa started today, but somehow didn't get around to it.

In the morning I listened to astronomer and author Tom Vassos, who explained in his lecture "You and the Cosmos" how connected we are to the cosmos.

We then learned the history of the Pentagon from Skip Pratt, who worked there for years.

In the afternoon the historian Dr. Prue Ahrens explains the history of the Pacific islands in old pictures.

Then it was astronomer Tom Vassos' turn again, who told us about meteorites and brought two pieces of million-year-old meteorites with him as illustrative material.

In the evening it was time to relax and let comedian Kivi Rogers make us laugh.
