3D Astronomy: Modelling the Universe with 3D Printers

3D printing technology offers huge benefits in astronomy education and research.  The 3D Astronomy Project at the Space Telescope Science Institute and +NASA Goddard have created innovative education materials and 3D models of astronomical objects using #Hubble data.

Please join +Tony Darnell Dr +Carol Christian and +Scott Lewis as they discuss how 3D printing is being used in both education and research as well as helping the visually impaired.

As always, we look forward to your questions and comments as well, see you then!
