Argonne Voices - Unraveling the Cosmos: The South Pole Telescope

Подробнее о видео

Physicists Lindsey Bleem and Clarence Chang have gone where few have ever gone: The South Pole. Why? Because it’s the home of the massive and powerful South Pole Telescope, which uses detectors developed and manufactured at Argonne. With this telescope, Lindsey and Clarence study the origin of our universe by observing something called the cosmic microwave background. Learn more about their research and hear surprising facts about the South Pole.

Argonne Voices is an oral history project recording the stories behind decades of world-changing science at the Laboratory.
