Join us in the Planetarium for this free talk with Dr. Lauranne Lanz, The College of New Jersey. Astronomers have found that nearly every galaxy hosts a supermassive black hole at its center. In some galaxies, these slumbering behemoths roar to life as active galactic nuclei (AGN). Join us in the planetarium as Dr. Lauranne Lanz discusses how AGN can shape the fate of their host galaxies and shares the frontiers of black hole research.
