ABSTRACT:
Pulsars steadily loose their rotational energy via a magnetized
relativistic wind. The confinement of this wind by the surrounding
supernova ejecta or the interstellar medium generates a luminous
nebula of synchrotron emission called a pulsar wind nebula (PWN). I
will give a general introduction into structure and evolution of
pulsar wind nebulae and discuss examples of PWNe located inside and
outside of their host supernova remnant. I will then give an
overview of the PWN G63.7+1.1 and describe our planned JCMT

Using the 3D stereoscopic projection system in the `Imiloa planetarium,
‘Imiloa’s planetarium manager Shawn Laatsch will “fly” participants
out into space on a unique and engaging tour of our home galaxy, the
Milky Way. The program begins by exploring the local neighborhood of
our solar system, including planets and their moons, landing on Mars
and zipping through the rings of Saturn. The journey continues
outward to visit other planetary systems, fly through the Orion Nebula,
explore open and globular clusters, and even peek into the center of

Kids Invent Hawaii
Welcome. We teach hands-on science to kids. We show kids how to become creative, inventive and entrepreneurial through our Kids Invent program. In our hands-on science classes, kids invent toys.
We are a high-enrichment after-school program offered to public and private schools in Hawaii. In our classes, students use concepts of science and technology to invent toys and games. Kids learn all of this while having fun!
