Mt Stromlo 100th - The Dark Side of the Universe (SOLD OUT)
About
Professor Tamara Davis - The Dark Side of the UniverseWhat is the dark energy that’s accelerating the Universe? Discovered a quarter of a century ago, it’s a feature of our Universe that appears to have some sort of anti-gravity property. Now astronomers have zeroed in on how it’s changed over the last 10 billion years. Using thousands of supernovae and millions of galaxies they’ve mapped the cosmos and discovered to their surprise that dark energy may be changing with time. This talk will describe the many varied ways in which astronomers are measuring the dark side of the Universe, and get you up to date on the recent exciting results.
