Kip S. Thorne, Richard P. Feynman Professor of Theoretical Physics, Emeritus at Cal Tech, will present the 53rd Annual Smith Lecture on November 18, 2015 in 131 Hitchcock Hall.  His title will be "Black Holes, Gravitational Waves, and Interstellar: The Centennial of Einstein's Relativity.  We are fortunate to have Prof. Thorne present this lecture, 20 years after the first time he presented the Smith Lecture.  In preparation for the Smith Lecture, the Department of Physics will present a screening of "Interstellar" on Thursday, October 22 at 6:30 pm at the Gateway Film Center with a Q&A hosted by physics faculty following the screening.  Tickets may be purchased for the nominal fee of $2.00 directly from the Gateway Film Center.  Online purchase also available for an additional $1.00 service charge at: http://go.osu.edu/interstellar.
