How do we discover new types of objects in space? One way is to invent new kinds of telescopes. Join Museum Curator Michael Shara on an exploration of evolving telescope technologies, the most powerful telescopes ever built, and how the future of stargazing might already be in your pocket–as well as in the brand-new Condor Array Telescope.
Along the way, learn about the “wild and crazy” things stars do through Shara’s research into novas (stellar explosions that often repeat over time) and supernovas (the explosive deaths of stars).
