Real Images of Exoplanets
Prof. Jason Wang
We have already discovered more than 4000 planets outside of our solar system. Prof. Wang will talk about how we take pictures of these planets, what we can learn from them, and how close we are to finding an Earth-like planet orbiting another star.
Jason Wang will present his research in a talk aimed at undergraduate students (but for the entire departmental community!). Following the talk will be an informal Q&A session so
you can learn more!
Pizza will be served!
