CFI’s Café Inquiry: Dr. Rafael Lang of the Physics Department at Purdue University will lead a discussion concerning our current understanding of the Universe while illustrating a range of different observations. From this, it will become clear that Dark Matter is a key component, vastly more relevant than all the known matter taken together, be it stars, planets, dust, or even Black Holes. But what is Dark Matter, really? Its nature is simply unknown. Naturally, a large scientific effort is put into uncovering this mystery today, and a colorful variety of experiments aims at the detection of Dark Matter. Dr. Lang works on one of these experiments and will provide insight to this buzzing field of science.

When: Thursdaqy March 15, 7:00 pm
Where: Center for Inquiry-Indiana, 350 Canal Walk, Suite A, Indianapolis
