The Warm Glow of our Cool Universe
October 14
Time: 7 p.m. PDT (10 p.m. EDT; 0300 UTC)
In order to explore the mysteries of our universe, we need to look at it in different ways. Astrophysics missions like SPHEREx and Euclid will use infrared astronomy to deepen our knowledge of unseen phenomena, such as inflation and dark energy. Join us as we explore how infrared observations are changing our understanding of the cosmos and its origins
