Demystifying Black Holes

Our first  Science Discovery Teen Café of the school year is right around the corner! Please join us for an evening of Astrophysics with Bhupendra Mishra, a PhD student in Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences. Bhupendra will be discussing his work on how black holes eat and the significance of the amazing photograph of a black hole taken last year by a world-spanning network of observatories called the Event Horizon Telescope. We'll talk with Bhupendra, make some black holes of our own, and we might even slow down the speed of light!
