NLS Presents: "Listen to the Universe"
Virtual Event with NASA and the Smithsonian Institution

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.

In collaboration with NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and the Smithsonian Institution, NLS is hosting a virtual panel to discuss how data captured by the observatory is processed and made accessible for scientists with visual impairments and how astronomers with visual impairments pursue their careers. Panelists will include Dr. Wanda Diaz, who is blind and is a leading proponent of sonification of astrophysical data, and Christine Malec, an accessibility consultant who also is blind.

This event will be of particular interest to young patrons curious about career options in astronomy and other scientific fields.

Zoom Event

This virtual panel of scientists will be streamed live on Zoom at 7 p.m. eastern time on Wednesday, February 5th.
