*DISCOUNT* ENDS FRIDAY AUG 20!!!
What is BINA*?
Is it a party? A mixer? A conference?
BINA is all of the above.
Join us for a fast-paced, thought-provoking evening where different people in our Jewish young professional community will inspire you with new ideas, tell you about amazing things they do and push you to look at things differently... Now add cocktails to that... some networking and lots of mingling... and you have BINA.
BINA. IDEAS. CONNECTED.
* Bina means wisdom in Hebrew (pronounced bee-na).
Light Hors d'oeuvre, soft drinks and wine will be served. Cocktails and beer will be available at the cash bar at a subsidized price.

Titan: a World Strange and Familiar | Oded Aharonson
The Cassini mission to Titan has unveiled a world that experiences surface temperatures about 200 degrees colder than Earth’s, receives 100 times less sunlight, where hydrocarbon molecules rain from the sky and water ice is as hard as rock. But for all of its strange thermosphysical and chemical state, Titan exhibits landforms remarkably familiar to our own: extensive dunes in the dry regions, braided channel networks draining from mountains to large basins, and perhaps most astonishingly, large seas and lakes in the high latitudes filled with liquid methane and ethane. This presentation will review the discoveries of the recent flybys of Titan with focus on what has been learned about its lakes, their seasonal evolution, and the hypothesis that they undergo cyclic change over tens of thousands of years, analogous to (Croll) Milankovitch climate cycles on Earth.
