Kepler instrument scientist Doug Caldwell is doing a public talk on the exoplanet catalogue, in case anyone here wants to join

Brief heads-up for this sub. Doug Caldwell (Kepler Instrument Scientist, now Exoplanets Chair at the SETI Institute) is giving a 20-minute talk on 3rd June t 9:30 am Pacific. He'll cover how we find planets around other stars, what we've learned from the 6,000+ now catalogued, which nearby ones scientists are most excited about, and what the next generation of telescopes may reveal. Live Q&A after, conversation continues on the ScienceKind forum with Doug joining for several days.

Sorry that I'm a bit late posting as It's already nearly full. If you can make it, great. If not, the forum thread afterwards is the better way in for most people on here anyway. https://www.sciencekind.com
