Doug Simons, executive director at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, will discuss future astronomical discoveries that are on the horizon, many linked to observations from Maunakea. Fueled by exponential
advancements in technology, our understanding of dark matter and energy, black holes, the first stars in the universe, and how even “new physics” is growing rapidly.
Participants will learn about how astronomy provides us with many of the pieces needed to fill in that big picture.
