Event Details

The NASA Kepler Mission provided 4 year long, ultra precise light curves for over 150,000 stars - in hopes to find the sign of transiting planets. In Kepler’s field of view was KIC 8462852, a star that citizen scientists identified this star to have unusual, random patters in its light curve. I will talk about the discovery, recent developments, and future work planed to study this star.
