Brentwood Library: Revealing The Invisible Universe With Radio Telescopes

Dr. Jennifer West, Dunlap Institute for Astronomy & Astrophysics

For thousands of years, people have gazed up at the sky without realizing its hidden secrets: that most of the stuff out in space cannot be seen with our eyes! It is only in the last 100 years or so, with the use of new instruments like radio telescopes, we have begun to reveal this invisible universe.

Dr. Jennifer West will discuss some of the things that we hope to learn and also the challenges and possible new technologies that come with it.
