The Science And Beauty Of Nebulae

Professor Carolin Crawford, Astrophysics Fellow at Emmanuel College, Cambridge and member of the Institute of Astronomy, will give a presentation on The Science and Beauty of Nebulae.

This is about interstellar space - not truly a vaccum devoid of matter, but inhabited by vast thin clouds of gas and dust that appear as glorious and complex structures.

Professor Crawford's talk will showcase some of the most spectacular images of these nebulae, including many taken with the Hubble and Spitzer space telescopes.
