Beschreibungen/Notizen

• [...]an artist and a professor of astronomy and astrophysics at UC Santa Cruz, imara, the first Black woman to earn a Ph.D. in astrophysics from UC Berkeley, is doing just that-creating three-dimensional models, small enough to fit in her palm, of stellar nurseries, the interstellar clouds in which stars are born. How does your work try to bridge that distance? I've been focusing on stellar nurseries-huge regions of gas and dust that have the potential to form stars-for much of my career. Stars are the visual building blocks of the universe.
