Space Telescopes and The California Connection

Benjamin Dean Lecture:  A planet with a 6,000 mile-per-hour jetstream, a planet with an atmospheric temperature of 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit, a star with five Earth-oceans worth of water raining down into its planet forming disk, generations of stars living and dying inside a single natal cocoon, and galaxies lurking at the edge of the visible universe. These results, and more, will be highlighted in this exploration of the 'hidden universe' revealed by space telescopes currently in-flight.

Speaker: Dr. Gordon K. Squires, NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope Science Center, California Institute of Technology
