Outreach

Scientific facts are the common ground that all parts of society can agree on. In the last 10 years, I was very active in outreach, delivering more than 100 hours of public talks, and organizing a large number of diverse events in both France and Canada.

Universite de Franche-Comte & Fabrika sciences (2014-2015):
• Weekly general public astronomy talks, both as co-organizer and speaker. These were fea- tured in many local newspapers, an example is shown in Fig. 4.
• Many talks at local schools I visited (example in Fig. 5).
• European Researchers’ Night. I was in charge of giving visitors guided tour of the local observatory.
• European Heritage Days. Same as above.
• Solar eclipse event of March 2015. I helped setting up the telescopes, distributing solar eclipse glasses, and most importantly giving multiple public talks on the science of eclipses.
• Special event for the lunch of Gaia. Multiple public talks on the significance and goals of this space mission.
• Special event for the arrival of Rosetta. Same as above, in addition to discussing early science results.

University of Toronto (2015-2018):
• 70 hours of planetarium shows as the speaker. These consisted of creating and then presenting solar system focused shows to the general public and school tours.
• Speaker at “Explore the mystical universe” event at the Art Gallery of Ontario.
• Speaker and volunteer at “Astronomy On Tap”, Toronto (Fig. 6).
• Solar eclipse event of August 2017.
• Meteorites exposition for “National Star Party” and Earth hour (multiple events), Toronto.
• My research on identifying craters on the Moon using artificial intelligence inspired art projects.

University of Montreal (2018-present):
• Speaker and volunteer at “Astronomy On Tap”, Montreal.
• Volunteer at “Plan´etarium Rio Tinto Alcan”, multiple events.
