ASTRONOMY ON TAP - Dark Matter: The Universe’s Spookiest Secret

  • Three Taverns 121 New Street Decatur, GA, 30030 United States (map)

Speaker: GSU Astrophysics Master's Student Jacob Tutterow

Title: Dark Matter: The Universe's Spookiest Secret

Summary: The Universe as we see with our eyes only tells part of the story, as we can only see ~15% of the matter around us. Join us for a spooky Halloween special, Part II of our two-part 1 year anniversary celebration of Astronomy on Tap at Three Taverns, where we will discuss the history of dark matter, observational evidence for why we know it's there, and some of the leading theories for what it might be. We will see how dark matter has shaped the Universe from the Big Bang to the present day, and the stories that got us here.
