Agincourt Library: Cosmology, Cell Phones and Video Games

Professor Keith Vanderlinde has spent the last decade building and using telescopes to study the universe: its composition, history, and eventual fate. Aided by the technologies that make cell phones possible and video games a staple of modern culture, he and colleagues from across Canada are building a massive new radio telescope which will begin mapping a larger volume of space than ever attempted before to study the mysterious Dark Energy which drives the universe's evolution.
