Prashin Jethwa: "In a Spin - The Science and Sociology of Spiral Galaxies"
Universitätssternwarte
Türkenschanzstraße 17, 1180 Wien
Vortrag
Spiral galaxies are spinning, but in which direction? This simple question has a rich and interesting history, and tests some of our most fundamental assumptions about the nature of the Universe. Our attempts at providing an answer have revealed previously unknown details about how humans perceive reality, and raises an important question about the accuracy not just of human vision, but computer vision. Join me as we spiral into these topics, from both a scientific and sociological perspective.
