World renowned astrophotographer, Adam Block, captures stars, galaxies, and nebulas in unparalleled detail and color. His work has received accolades from NASA and the Royal Observatory, and his images grace the pages of numerous books and magazines. Astrophotography can easily invoke feelings of inspiration, awe, and beauty, but many may not know the ways in which it can contribute to our understanding of the universe. About TEDx: In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
