Professor Trish Henning is a Galaxy Hunter. She uses the largest radio telescope in the world to glimpse distant galaxies, which reveal the large-scale structure of the Universe. Why? Because evidence suggests that galaxies including our own Milky Way are being pulled around by the gravity of unknown - hidden - galaxies.
In this special guest lecture Professor Henning will describe her work with the 305 metre Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico and her mission to seek out new galaxies and shed light on a Universal mystery.
This lecture is co-sponsored with the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) and the Institute of Advanced Studies at UWA.
