Fly through the galaxy with Museum astrophysicist Jackie Faherty, who takes us on a dazzling tour of new research and data visualizations made possible by recently released data from the Gaia space telescope.
In April 2018, the European Space Agency’s Gaia observatory released its second data catalog, which includes the distances to over 1.3 billion stars. Faherty breaks down why this information is so revolutionary, and explains how this information is helping scientists and non-scientists alike understand the universe like never before.
Listen to the full SciCafe event, including a Q&A session, by downloading the Science@AMNH podcast on iTunes, Soundcloud, or wherever you get your podcasts.
This SciCafe took place on October 3, 2018.
The SciCafe series is proudly sponsored by Judy and Josh Weston.
