As humans, we always try to see farther and in greater detail, exploring our distant Universe far beyond our vision. Tuned to all the wavelengths of light, huge instruments in space have become our new eyes on the cosmos. Airborne telescopes and observatories on high mountain peaks also watch the Universe through Earth's clearest skies. Radio ears as big as a football stadium capture the lowest frequencies of light. Detectors deep underground see the most elusive particles.
This evening astronomer Terence Murtagh, director and producer of "Unseen Universe," will lead us through a cosmic drama playing in the heavens above, with scenes and characters we've never seen before.
