‘Space Law: It’s out of this world’ & ‘The Omniplosion of the Universe’

<p>Space Law: It’s out of this world with Sarah Atkins:Learn whether you can really own a star; whether there are space outlaws; how can you be a space lawyer when you grow up; and more on the rules of space travel.Recommended for ages 6+.The Omniplosion of the Universe with Joe Jackson: On a clear night, the sky looks approximately the same in any direction. In all directions we see stars as points of light, with more along the Milky Way. Even if you look at distant galaxies with a telescope, again it looks approximately the same in all directions. Why is this? Our current best theory is that at very earlier times, the universe expanded at a phenomenal rate everywhere and all at once. An omni-explosion of the universe occurred. It is this period of rapid expansion which could possibly explain the very origin of the night sky itself.Recommended for ages 14+.These public talks will take place online on YouTube, with the link being emailed to registered attendees 48 hours before the event.
