Virtual Café Scientifique | Making A Digital Movie of the Universe

A new observatory is being constructed to conduct an unprecedented survey of space and time over half the sky and far back into the history of our Universe. The result of ten years of observations will be a digital movie that captures the dynamism of creation to address fundamental questions in four science areas: probing dark matter and dark energy; getting the most complete inventory of the solar system ever done; exploring the transient sky; and mapping the Milky Way. In this talk, we will summarize why scientists think they can achieve such a bold vision with just one observatory, assess what questions can be answered, and show how a diverse, worldwide community of citizen scientists will join in the quest. ___________________________________________ Larry Gladney, PhD Larry Gladney is the FAS Phyllis A. Wallace Dean for Diversity and Faculty Development, Professor of Physics, and incoming FAS Dean of Science at Yale University. Dr. Gladney obtained his PhD in experimental particle physics from Stanford University in 1985. Prior to his appointment at Yale, he spent over three decades at the University of Pennsylvania, where he was most recently the Edmund J. and Louise W. Kahn Professor for Faculty Excellence in the Department of Physics and Astronomy. There, he also served as Chair of the Faculty Senate, Chair of the Department of Physics and Astronomy, and Associate Dean for Natural Sciences in the School of Arts and Sciences. Dr. Gladney's research lies at the intersection of experimental particle physics and cosmology where we attempt to understand the origins of and fundamental connections between matter, energy, space, and time. Currently, he is engaged in explorations of the accelerated expansion of the Universe with the Legacy Survey of Space and Time at the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, currently under construction. ___________________________________________ About Café Scientifique: Café Scientifique is a place where anyone can come to explore the latest ideas in science and technology. The Café provides a forum for debating science issues outside a traditional academic context. We are committed to promoting public engagement with science and to making science accountable - all spoken in plain English. There is no admission charge to attend our events. Building on its great success outside the United States, Café Scientifique Silicon Valley is the first such Café on the West Coast. We meet monthly to discuss a variety of science topics. About HanaHaus: HanaHaus is a community workspace that combines the best aspects of café and coworking culture and cultivates a dynamic atmosphere for innovation. The concept of HanaHaus is rooted in the philosophy that great ideas spring from anywhere, and more often when people come together. HanaHaus brings people together and offers a space where they can connect, explore new ideas, and bring them to life. 💛FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA💛 Website: https://sap.to/6056zVBUu Instagram: https://sap.to/6053KTTWl LinkedIn: https://sap.to/6054KTTWm Twitter: https://sap.to/6055KTTWW Facebook: https://sap.to/6056KTTW 📝 Have feedback on this virtual session?
