Maria A. Shchuka Library: Cosmology, Cell Phones and Video Games

Join us for a Science Literacy Week talk with Professor Keith Vanderlinde! Professor Vanderlinde has spent the last decade building and using telescopes to study the universe: its composition, history, and eventual fate.

Aided by technologies that make cell phones and video games possible, and which make video games a staple of modern culture, he and colleagues from across Canada have just completed a massive new radio telescope in Penticton, B.C., which is mapping a larger volume of space than ever attempted before.

Drop in. No registration required.

Fee: Free
