About the Event
Over the past 100 years unimaginable discoveries have transformed our understanding of cosmology.
These have led to new models of theoretical physics in an attempt to explain these discoveries.
It is said that no physicists in the world are currently satisfied with our explanations of cosmology.
This talk looks at how and why theoretical physics has evolved over the past century; the issues that still need to be resolved; and the implications regarding both the origin and future of the universe.
