Astronomy on Tap: Observing in Space
October 12, 2021 @ 6:30 PM CEST
Free
Astronomy on Tap is a (FREE) series of events aimed at making the latest research in astronomy and space accessible to the public, with fun talks given in simple ENGLISH, and quiz, and plenty of time for mingling between our speakers and guests.
October was meant to the month when the James Webb Space Telescope launches, so we decided it was about time to talk about some space telescopes!
Prof. Gabriel Brammer (KU): Likes to think about how galaxies form and has looked any any galaxies with the Hubble Space Telescope!
Dr. Desiree Ferreira (DTU): is a senior scientist that has been looking at the universe in the x-ray and has recently been working on the Athena x-ray space telescope!
Schedule:
18:30: Doors open to the STARDUST Room
19:00: Prof. Gabriel Brammer – Visible light and Hubble
19:30: Quiz and break
20:00: Dr. Desiree Ferreira – X-ray light and Athena
