The show uses the planetarium’s new digital technology to move through the solar system and look at new evidence from the Mars Science Laboratory rover (“Curiosity”) that, in the distance past, Mars had a habitat conducive to life. Combining full dome videos, the simulation potential of the new digital projector, amazing images shot right on Mars and stirring music, the 45-minute show is suitable for all ages.

Show times are 7 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays and 2 p.m. Sundays through May 12. Admission is free. Note that the show will begin on time, with no late entrance permitted. The Hardin Planetarium is located at the corner of College Heights Boulevard and State Street.

This webinar will show how the suite of MathWorks tools complement and enhance each other, and how when combining them together, the user can unleash the full potential of our complete development environment. The demonstration example will examine how a simple second order differential equation can evolve into a complex dynamic model of a multi-degree of freedom robotic manipulator that includes the controls, electronics and three-dimensional mechanics of the complete system.  
Highlights of the presentation include:

• Using the MuPad interface in the Symbolic Math Toolbox to create equations of motion
• Modeling complex electro-mechanical systems using Simulink and the physical modeling libraries
• Importing three-dimensional mechanisms directly from CAD packages using the SimMechanics translator
• Using the Control System Toolbox and the Optimization Toolbox directly on your Simulink model
• Prototyping and testing your real-time system directly in hardware with xPC Target
