Lecture Kip Thorne - The Warped Side of our Universe
On Friday, March 22nd, prof. dr. Kip Thorne will be giving a lecture for the general public in the Vesalius lecture hall. Thorne is a theoretical physicist, known for his contributions to gravitational physics and astrophysics. He collaborated with Stephen Hawking and taught at the California Institute of Technology for years. Thorne is active in numerous projects on the cutting edge of science and art and gives scientific advice as well, for example for Interstellar by Christopher Nolan and Contact by Robert Zemeckis. In 2017 Thorne, together with Rainer Weiss and Barry C. Barish, received the Nobel prize for their observational discovery of gravitational waves.
The live lecture is sold out. However, we will organise a live stream, that you can watch at home, or in the auditorium of Groep T.
