    Sedona News – Speakers Diane Phelps Budden and Kevin Schindler will present “Tiny Pluto has a Big Heart” at the Sedona Heritage Museum on Thursday, March 27, at 10 am.  The presentation will take place in the Museum’s historic Apple Shed and is free to attend.

    The discovery of Pluto in 1930 at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff brought Arizona and the observatory to the public’s attention, and they fell in love with this little planet. Diane will discuss Clyde W. Tombaugh’s early years when he developed a passion for astronomy. Kevin will share Arizona’s ongoing connection to Pluto research and how the New Horizons mission revealed breathtaking features of Pluto’s surface. When Pluto was downgraded to a dwarf planet there was a large group of planetary scientists and members of the public who loudly disagreed. In Arizona, we made Pluto our state planet.

    Diane Phelps Budden is a Sedona based author, whose most recent book is Needle in a Haystack: How Clyde W. Tombaugh Found an Awesome New World.  Kevin Schindler is the historian at Lowell Observatory.

    From Protest Signs to Missiles: Why Peace Needs Teeth
    .By Tommy Acosta

    As a child of the ’60s, I grew up hating war—protesting and demonstrating against them, uncovering as a writer the global military-industrial complex, and seeking peace with my pen. Through the years, I saw myself as a herald—someone who could help people, through my writings, liberate themselves from programmed ignorance and institutionalized stupidity. Well, now that I am in the third act of my life, my understanding of how the world works has changed.
