A couple of week ago I posted about the event we are putting on at Maynooth University to mark Space Week in Ireland, which is is from October 4th – 10th this year. The event at Maynooth is on Wednesday October 9th, i.e. a week tomorrow. I’ll be doing a talk, the description of which reads:
Two of the greatest mysteries in modern science concern the nature of the dark matter and dark energy we think dominate the Universe. In this talk I will explain how the European Space Agency’s Euclid mission, launched last year, is designed to shed light on the “dark side” of the cosmos, present some of the early results, and show how you can get involved in analyzing Euclid data.
Anyway, I did think today would provide a good excuse to boost the bookings, but I’m afraid the venue is already full so I needn’t have bothered.
If you didn’t manage to book you can at least read the programme here to see what you’re going to miss!
