Caltech Events is @Caltech's public events program. We offer the campus & community a gateway to world-class Scientists, Artists & Speakers. #BeckmanAuditorium
This March, discover how Caltech researchers are using AI to sharpen scientific insight—from designing AI systems to guide sustainability decisions to combining AI and physics to reveal hidden parts of the universe. More: caltech.short.gy/TW-March-20…
This February, experience curiosity in action with Caltech Public Events: a Watson Lecture on sustainable battery chemistries, a conversation with alumni on the state of AI, an architectural tour of Caltech, and more: caltech.short.gy/TW-February…
As the year draws to a close, we’re reflecting on the public events that brought thousands of community members together on campus over the past twelve months. Thank you for joining us.

Curiosity takes flight this November with Caltech Public Events. From Mars rovers to flying robots, explore discoveries pushing the boundaries of exploration: mailchi.mp/caltech/caltech-e…
Bananas, quantum science, and the origin of the universe—what do they have in common? They all came up at the first Watson Lecture of the 103rd season, Nick Hutzler shared how his lab studies why our universe has matter but almost no antimatter. Watch now: youtube.com/watch?v=VG4Ovi4z…
What do we know about planets outside of our solar system? Are there really planets orbiting the nearest star system to ours, Alpha Centauri? On 10/27, head to Dog Haus in Old Town Pasadena to find out at the next Astro on Tap. Learn more: events.caltech.edu/calendar/…
On 10/30, experience the real sounds of Mars—wind, dust devils, and seismic rumbles—paired with orchestral melodies created from Red Planet data at Mars Symphony, a free, one-night performance at Caltech. Register: caltech.short.gy/s4CRGP
Powering Earth from space is closer to reality than ever. On 10/27, Movies That Matter presents a free screening and Q&A of Bright Harvest, a film following three Caltech professors and their goal to bring sci-fi into being. Register now: caltech.short.gy/6E8z1U
The big bang should have created equal parts matter and antimatter, but antimatter isn’t freely available in the universe. Caltech physicist Nick Hutzler (BS ’07) is looking for the answer. Find out how at his Watson Lecture on Oct 22: caltech.short.gy/BSw8jO
At @CaltechAstro’s next Stargazing Lecture on 10/3, learn how astronomers discover near-Earth objects and what happens if one poses a threat to Earth. In person and online: caltech.short.gy/QRVlw0
9/25: @CaltechAlumni hosts Techer Live: Future Prospects for American Science, a conversation with Caltech President Thomas F. Rosenbaum and Science editor-in-chief Holden Thorp on science’s role in the public good. More: events.caltech.edu/calendar/…
Sept 18–20: @CaltechAstro joins the Great Basin Astronomy Festival in Nevada. Find Astronomy on Tap with Caltech scientists, plus stargazing, talks, and more about our night sky. Learn more: nps.gov/grba/planyourvisit/g…
Sept 12–14: @CaltechAstro hosts public talks and an astrophysicist Q&A at the 12th annual Sequoia Dark Sky Festival. Discover astronomy events and more at Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. More: sequoiaparksconservancy.org/…
Will people ever be able to live on Mars? How can balloons send telescopes to the edge of space? Find out at the next Astronomy on Tap with @CaltechAstro on Sept 15: events.caltech.edu/calendar/…
Join us next Monday for Astronomy on Tap, featuring talks on these topics by NASA JPL Engineers Adam Steltzner and Susan Redmond! Also, telescopes, pub trivia, and live music by Jason Achilles! See you guys next week!
