Mr Renn is a member of the Vatican Observatory Foundation Board of

The talk refers to the trial of Galileo as an example of conflict between
faith and science. The lecture discusses Fr. George LeMaitre, who used
Einsteins equations to propose a theory of the origin of the Universe we
now call “The Big Bang”. This is followed by a short overview of the
present state of the Universe and how the name “Big Bang” was coined by
Professor Fred Hoyle in 1949. Finally, the presenter discusses
philosophical concepts that personal at the Vatican encounter when they
discuss the evolution of the Universe.
Please mark your calendar with this meeting information; we look forward to
seeing you.
