Abstract: This is a public talk where a brief history of astronomy is surveyed and major discoveries are outlined. It gives a big picture of the field of astrophysics with some of the challenges that lie ahead.
April 16, 2021, Pawel Nurowski (CFT PAN), Before the Big Bang (poster)
Abstract: I will briefly describe Roger Penrose's recent approach to theoretical cosmology, called Conformal Cyclic Cosmology (CCC). The implications of CCC are very interesting. In particular, CCC says that there was a Universe before the Big Bang and suggests that we can see it.
