José Francisco Salgado has spent more than 60 nights capturing the beauty of the Northern Lights for his Science & Symphony films and lectures. In this presentation, Dr. Salgado will explain the physics behind the auroras and will share tips and techniques for taking stills, time-lapse sequences, and real-time video of this upper atmosphere phenomenon. Although he has admired the lights from Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Iceland, he will explain why his favorite place for aurora viewing is Yellowknife, Canada and will show us excerpts from his Northern Lights film productions.
José Francisco Salgado is an Emmy-nominated astronomer (BS in Physics, Univ. of Puerto Rico; PhD in Astronomy, Univ. of Michigan), experimental photographer, and public speaker who creates multimedia works that communicate science in engaging ways. His Science & Symphony films have been presented in more than 350 concerts and lectures reaching a combined audience of 400,000 people in 18 countries. As an experimental photographer, Dr. Salgado has visited more than 30 scientific sites in places including the South Pole, the Atacama Desert, the French Pyrenees, and the South African Karoo and has contributed visuals to documentaries produced for the History Channel, Discovery Channel, BBC, YouTube Red, and National Geographic.
