Central Library Room: O-13/O-14Abstract:
What is radio astronomy? What are it's origins? What can it see? How is it done? Jason will answer these questions about humanity's first foray into the invisible universe. Jason will look at the sources of radio waves, how we detect them and what amateurs can do to make radio observations.
