Ladd Observatory will be open Tuesday night, clouds or not, to host a talk by Prof. Peter H. Schultz, of Brown's Department of Geological Sciences. His topic will be, "The Moon: Dead or Alive?"
 The Moon may lack biology, but it's a lively geological place, and Prof. Schultz will talk about new technology that allows us to view the Moon in a whole new light. The talk will begin about 8:30 in the library. Sign up ahead to ensure a seat, the professor's talks fill up fast. But, skies permitting, the 12-inch telescope up in the dome also will be open for business, so before or after the presentation, you can view the body in question in its first quarter phase, perfect for a great view of those geological features.
