SUMMARY:Introduction to Astronomy May 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Building Blocks of the Universe\n(and how they relate to astronomy)\nGuest speaker – Jonathan Park MSc (Astronomy) \nThis is a fun\, basic introduction to how the universe works at the smallest scales. In this talk\, we start by describing the structure and size of the atom for anyone new to the topic. You will then be equipped to join the journey down the rabbit hole to the smallest\, weirdest particles. After hearing about these intriguing objects\, we learn how the building blocks of the universe apply in astronomy. What are cosmic rays? How does the Sun really turn hydrogen into helium to provide sunlight? There are trillions of (harmless) particles from space travelling through you right now – what are they? Whether your knowledge of this topic is limited or if you know all about the tiny particles of the universe\, you will be fascinated by this talk.
