Cosmological instruments aimed at measuring the early moments after the Big Bang receive enormous amounts of data about our universe. Recently scientists realized these observatories can see not only the early universe, but the dynamic behaviour of asteroids in our solar system! Join us Wednesday, May 24th, to hear TSI postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Jack Orlowski-Scherer, tell us about how cosmologists have started their search for asteroids in cosmological data. Did we find any? If so, what did we learn?
