SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - Looking for something smart to do with your Monday night? Consider coming out to a Suds & Science discussion. 

Suds & Science is a monthly event that joins scientists and the public at a neighborhood bar. The series is backed by the Fleet Science Center. 

Each S&S session starts with a short presentation, followed by an open dialogue between the audience and the speaker. Unlike a lecture class, you’re encouraged to ditch the pen and notebook for a beer.

Monday's theme will be “Messages from Space.”

UCSD Assistant Professor of Physics Dr. Shelley Wright will be talking about her work and the tools astronomers use to scour the sky for extraterrestrial intelligence.

Teachers are invited to get there early for an interactive demonstration of spectral analysis.

Details:

Cost: $5. Food & drinks are available for purchase.

When: Monday, May 14; 6:30–8 p.m. Hands-on teacher workshop available starting at 5:30 p.m.

Where: Mangia Italiano, 248 Third Ave., Chula Vista, CA 91910
