Hidden Things | In-Person Talk at SSILL

For all of human history, we have looked to the stars with wonder and curiosity. Stars and planets that we can see have inspired mythology and helped us navigate our own planet. But what exists beyond our small corner of the universe? How can we observe things that we can’t see? In this month’s Science in the News talk Yale scientists will tell us how unseen objects can uncover hidden secrets of the universe. You’ll learn about the possible existence of a new planet - ‘Planet 9’ - and about telescopes buried deep in polar ice that help us see beyond our galaxy.
