Armchair Astrophysics: Finding Physics Far and Wide

Quyen Hart, Space Telescope Science Institute
What do echoes, bubbles, and fireworks have to do with astrophysics? What do highway traffic jams and galaxy spiral arms have in common? Some of your everyday experiences can be explained using some basic physics concepts, and some of our cosmic observations have analogues in what we see around us. The laws of physics are universal, so astronomers apply our understanding of physics here on Earth to everything in the universe. Join us to explore the physics of familiar phenomena and to learn where the same physics is working 'out there' in the cosmos. Armchairs are not required, but highly recommended.

Great lecture! Clearly explained not so intuitive topics, as everyday phenomena they may be, they are not that easy to fully grasp. Thanks!

Would you, please, translate your audios to Portuguese? My son is 10 years old and don't know English. We're from Brazil.

I thoroughly enjoyed your talk. It was both informative and entertaining. I am looking forward to blowing bubbles and watching fireworks with my grandkids more than ever!
