Astrophysicist, inventor, science communicator, and humanitarian Hakeem M. Oluseyi “hacks” existing data to answer questions about the stars such as “what is matter made of” and “where does light come from?” In his SciCafe talk, Oluseyi explores significant milestones in his career, from early days building rockets that photograph the sun at different temperatures to pioneering new ion propulsion technology inspired by the Sun’s jets.

This SciCafe took place at the Museum on December 4, 2019.
