Celebrate ten years of discovery with the E. A. Milne Centre for Astrophysics at the University of Hull!
Join Director Dr Elke Roediger for a tour of the cutting-edge research happening in Hull — from modelling how galaxies form and evolve, to exploring the origins of the elements, to investigating signals that might hint at life beyond Earth.
Discover how our researchers use supercomputers, machine learning, and real telescope data to probe everything from stars to galaxy clusters. Then stick around for our interactive “Ask Me Anything” panel, where Milne Centre experts will tackle your biggest questions about the universe.
