Free to the public and all are welcome to attend.
Our program will be a presentation by Dr. Travis Fischer, ESA/AURA Astronomer at the Space Telescope Science Institute. Dr. Fischer's presentation will be titled, "Active Galaxies: Monsters of the Deep (Space)."
Active galaxies are some of the most fascinating objects in the universe. They emit copious amounts of energy, often far exceeding the energy output of an entire galaxy of stars. But what makes them so active? Dr. Fischer will explore the nature of active galaxies, including their energetic processes and the role they play in shaping the universe we see today. Hear about some of the latest research in the field, including the use of telescopes and other observational tools to study these enigmatic objects. Join us on this journey to the heart of the most powerful objects in the cosmos.
This month, we will return to our normal spot in the newly renovated Science Live Auditorium.
