OSU CCAPP 10th Biard Lecture - Planet Nine from Outer Space 3-7-18

Planet Nine from Outer Space Mike Brown (Professor of Planetary Astronomy, Caltech) Wednesday March 7, 2018 Held at COSI, Center of Science and Industry Recent evidence suggests that a massive body is lurking at the outskirts of our solar system, far beyond the orbits of the known giant planets. This object, at a distance approximately 20 times further than Neptune and with a mass approximately 5000 times larger that Pluto, is the real ninth planet of the solar system. Mike Brown is a Professor of Planetary Astronomy at the California Institute of Technology where he teaches classes from introductory physics to the science of the solar system. He and his research group spend their time searching for and studying the most distant objects in the solar system and drinking coffee. 10th Annual R. Jack and Forest Lynn Biard Cosmology and Astrophysics Lecture The annual series of public lectures supported by a generous gift from the late Captain Forrest R. Biard, U.S. Navy, Ret., a 1953 MS recipient from the Physics Department at The Ohio State University. The Biard Lecture is the cornerstone of CCAPP's outreach effort, bringing forefront research in cosmology and astrophysics to OSU's undergraduates, the University community, and the general public. http://ccapp.osu.edu/biardlecture.html
