NLS Presents: Listen to the Universe
Have you ever listened to the universe? NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory is a telescope designed to detect X-ray emissions—data that some scientists then process and interpret using sonification, which turns large data sets into sound. On Wednesday, February 5, the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled (NLS)—in collaboration with NASA and the Smithsonian Institution—will host a virtual panel of scientists who will discuss the Chandra X-ray Observatory project and how astronomers with visual impairments pursue their careers. Join the session on Zoom at https://loc.zoomgov.com/j/1619542004?pwd=LgN8J45UGeYbkiwz4fuba5jaKmpegI.1
