Event Report

Comments and anecdotes about the event:
This month we reached out all the way to Hawaii, to connect with Dr. Gregory Tarle', a retired UofM professor who is still working in experimental astrophysics. His presentation was about the latest research on dark energy and a theory that cosmologically coupled black holes may be driving the accelerating expansion of the universe by converting mass and energy into dark energy. So far, the theory looks promising and has the answers to several questions and meets several critical parameters. We had 17 in-person attendees and 7 via Zoom.
