Special Lecture: Let’s talk Astrophysics
Lecture in English by Dr. Ioannis Kamaretsos (Munich Public Observatory)
Friday, October 17th 2025, 8 p.m.
Venue: Volkssternwarte München, Gisela-Stein-Str. Ecke Ludwig-Jung-Bogen, 81671 München
This lecture is part of a series on selected topics in Astrophysics. Let us become acquainted with recent discoveries, while placing focus on the ideas behind the published works. Following the 50min-long lecture, we may continue with discussions on the rooftop area.
Topic: Large scale structure of the Universe, and the curious case of a statistical anomaly in the rotational direction of spiral galaxies in deep surveys from HST and JWST. Is the Universe rotating in its entirety? Bonus question: could our known Universe lie in a black hole, within a parent universe?
