SUMMARY:H2O – The Cosmic States of Water
DESCRIPTION:H2O – The Cosmic States of Water \nIn the icy northern waters\, a little sea otter named Sedna spends her days playing\, fishing\, and diving with her fellow otters.

Thanks to H2O\, Sedna will go on an extraordinary journey to discover the water cycle on Earth. Then\, buoyed by a fresh self-confidence and her newly gained knowledge\, she persuades Toklo to embark on an even more amazing journey. \nAges 5 and up \n  \nTickets for planetarium programs are $7 for Adults\, $6 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $5 for children under 12.

SUMMARY:The 2nd Northern New England Microbiome Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Whether we are interested in the way coastal wetlands sequester carbon\, how diet affects us differently\, or how public and environmental health are inextricably linked – research on the microbiome can reveal how systems connect. Join us to learn about how microbial communities impact ecosystems\, food production\, health\, and more; to hear from experts researching these issues in New England and beyond; and discuss the technology and data analysis which can boost your own research. \nRegistration is free\, but required as space is limited: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd13dkOAexCfiElqTG8f7fygsmuYx3mubK_ZssYT6jmtUbRoQ/viewform?usp=header
