Nature’s Telescopes: Gravitational Lensing – Astronomy Class
March 25, 2025 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
$15 – $20
Guest presenter: Emmy Bursk
How can we study the universe’s earliest galaxies, billions of light-years away? The answer lies in using other galaxies as natural telescopes. By bending and magnifying light from distant objects, these natural lenses provide a glimpse into the formation of galaxies, the cosmic web, and the origins of the universe.
Class level: Intermediate – This class is recommended for guests that have some background of astronomical knowledge and are comfortable with mathematical material.
Classes will be held in-person at the observatory. Pricing details are below:
Non-members $20/class
