An Enlightening Evening of Dark Matter
Take a guided tour of the invisible universe on Dark Matter Night.
In a hybrid event (in-person and live webcast) on October 26, dark matter researchers Katie Mack and Ken Clark will share insights into the ubiquitous, mysterious matter that makes up the majority of stuff in our universe.
Dark Matter Night will be webcast live from two locations. Starting at 7:30 pm ET, Mack will discuss the theoretical and observational foundations of dark matter at Perimeter Institute, where she holds the Hawking Chair in Cosmology and Science Communication. Clark, an associate professor at the Arthur B. McDonald Canadian Astroparticle Physics Research Institute, will then share experimental approaches that could help solve the riddle of dark matter.
Each speaker’s presentation will be simulcast to the live audience at the other institute, and the whole event will be available via free webcast.
Dark Matter Night is one of many ways you can explore the topic -- find lots more at darkmatterday.com.
Free tickets to attend in person, either at Perimeter or the McDonald Institute, will become available on Monday, October 17 at 9 am ET.
