Branstetter and Dumas were recognized for putting themselves at extreme personal risk by slowing a fire’s advance, thus rescuing a trapped civilian during a structure fire on Adams Avenue on June 6, 2018. “We don’t encourage folks to just run into burning buildings,” said Wooten, “but in this case I’ll say that that decision was swift and decisive and had a definite impact on the survival of that victim.” SPRING Tune-Up Only $99* Join astronomer and retired Aerospace engi- neer Steve Kilston for the next Science Pub, set for Tuesday, June 25. Kilston will present scientific ideas that may enable us to identify with our universe in all its reality and potential, intensifying feelings of connection, unity and purpose. This talk will describe an astronomical perspec- tive on how our universe came to be populat- ed, discuss how science helps us choose actions compatible with our uni- verse’s rules and the laws of nature we recognize as truths, and explore other worlds beyond Earth.
