How fast is really fast? Like really, REALLY fast? Speed is the subject of the third lecture in the Geek! series at Lawrence Hall of Science.
Dr. Roger Falcone, Professor of Physics at UC Berkeley, will discuss light speed and beyond, focuing on ultra-fast speed where chemicals are bonded and torn apart, where x-rays and laser lights effect condensed matter.
Sound confusing? Fun? Really Interesting and fun and confusing? Not to worry!
