Listen to a talk about galaxies tonight at 7 pm in Pupin Hall!

Happening off Campus: After a stop in England and the US, production of the Rubik’s Cube is returning to Hungary, where architect Ernő Rubik invented the toy in 1974 (AP). 

Happening near Campus: On Thursday, New York City Council banned surveillance pricing. Companies that use surveillance pricing leverage customer data—whether that be demographics, browsing history, or even whether someone is in their parking lot—to raise or lower prices. Mayor Zohran Mamdani praised the ban, arguing that it protects the working class; however, some critics claim that it disadvantages small restaurants with limited marketing budgets (Gothamist). 

Happening on-Campus: Partake in astronomy trivia and listen to a talk about galaxies during Public Astronomy Night, happening tonight from 7 to 9 pm in Pupin Hall. See details here.
