Today In Space

Welcome to our newly revamped segment for 2020 called the People of Science where we breakdown the common misconception of what someone in science is like. Let's be honest, when I say that someone is a person of science, or a scientist what do you think of? Probably someone in a lab coat, maybe holding a beaker of some neon colored liquid. Maybe safety glasses on, if you're lucky? On this week's episode - we're talking about Astronomer and Astrophysicist Vera Rubin who is responsible for the discovery of Dark Matter Haloes which expands our search to understanding the mystery of 'dark matter'. Learn a bit about the life and person behind the scientist on this week's episode. Vera Rubin's voice was done by Sara. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-is-a-neutrino/ https://www.space.com/vera-rubin.html?utm_campaign=meetedgar&utm_medium=social&utm_source=meetedgar.com Neil DeGrasse Tyson on Dark Matter https://youtu.be/lr-DB3Z_5_c Preview of Vera Rubin's book Bright Galaxies, Dark Matters http
