This
session will take a look back in time to calculate how long ago the universe
first started expanding (i.e. the Big Bang). Using observational data,
participants will be able to calculate Hubble’s constant and an approximate
age of the universe. Activities can be
completed either on a laptop or on paper. https://spacecenter.grenadine.co/seec2020/form/SessionEval |
