Many of you weren’t able to make it to the Brian Schmidt (Nobel Prize in Physics 2011) lecture on April 11, but indicated that you were interested in the topic (“The Discovery of Cosmic Acceleration”). In case you are interested, we’ve uploaded the whole thing to YouTube:
From a childhood love of science to being awarded the prestigious Nobel Prize in Physics, Professor Brian Schmidt shares his “fairy-tale of a science story” that led to the startling discovery that the expansion of the universe is not slowing down but accelerating, and what that means for us.
