Science Segments: Red Dwarfs and Mirror Design
In this episode of TMT Science Segments, we hear from Tim Davidge of the Herzberg Institute of Astrophysics and member of the TMT Science Advisory Committee. Dr. Davidge will explain new Keck results that indicate astronomers have been underestimating the number of stars in the universe based on a survey of red dwarfs in eliptical galaxies.
We'll also talk with Jerry Nelson of the University of California, Santa Cruz, about the science and engineering behind building a 30-meter, segmented mirror.
