SUMMARY:2024 IBHA Conference
DESCRIPTION:We look forward to seeing you in person at our 2024 conference from June 28 to 30\, where we can discuss all of our latest work on the cosmos\, Earth\, life\, humanity – as well as exoplanets\, astrobiology\, the multitude of life forms\, culture\, and the potential of a multiverse – throughout all of the known past as well as in what we might reasonably expect in the future. \nWe have in the past met in an entirely on-line conference (2023)\, a hybrid on-line / in-person conference in India (2021)\, and in-person conferences in Pennsylvania (US\, 2018)\, the Netherlands (2016)\, California (US\, 2014)\, and Michigan (US 2012). \nThe center of North America is another great place to discuss big history. The geology of Oklahoma is formed by Carboniferous rocks in the east\, Permian rocks in the center and towards the west\, and a cover of Tertiary deposits in the panhandle to the west. The panhandle of Oklahoma is also noted for its Jurassic rocks as well. Cretaceous sediments are found in the south east. There are also some areas with older outcrops dating back to Cambrian\, and even one area of Precambrian igneous rocks. The Great Salt Plains are the remains of an ancient inland sea. The Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History is a world class\, state-of-the-art natural history museum with wings about flora and fauna\, the evolution of life\, and the peoples of Oklahoma from precolumbian times to the present. The First Americans Museum presents the many nations of Oklahoma.  The Oklahoma City Science Museum\, Museum of Art\, Zoo\, and the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum\, add more opportunities. And have fun at the Hurricane Harbor Water Park! \nThe conference will take place at the beautiful and well equipped NCED Conference Center & Hotel\, which is just 3 miles from the heart of the University of Oklahoma campus. It has a 60\,000 square foot fitness center with unique amenities including 4\,000 square foot weight and cardio room and heated pool. Rooms are reasonably priced at $114 per night\, which includes breakfast. The conference fee will be $325\, which includes a Friday welcome reception\, as well as lunches on Friday\, Saturday\, and Sunday. \nMost importantly\, we will all have the opportunity to present\, discuss\, and listen to each other’s work on the fascinating field of big history\, reconnect with old friends and meet new ones! \nA call for papers and registration information are forthcoming\, but be sure now to put this on your calendar!
