The universe will come to end, right? That’s a pretty heavy topic and can be very complicated to explain. Fear not though, today you can learn what the end of the universe means, astrophyically speaking, in easy to understand language.

Today on the SpaceQ podcast we’re featuring our second episode from our annual Summer Series, the End of the Universe: A Conversation with Katie Mack.

The End of Everything (Astrophyically Speaking)

Katie Mack is a cosmologist and science communicator. In June she published the book The End of Everything (Astrophyically Speaking).  Today we’ll hear from @AstroKatie on the topic of the end of the universe from a May 6th webcast from the Perimeter Institute. While the topic might be tough to follow for those who aren’t astrophysists, Mack is a consummate science communicator, and brings the topic alive so everyone can understand it.

Mack is currently a Simons Emmy Noether Fellow at the Perimeter Institute and an Assistant Professor at North Carolina State University.
