From ancient philosophers to the latest headlines\, science journalist Ivan Semeniuk will take you on a journey through space and time that puts new discoveries in context and shows how the work of scientists today relate to fundamental questions that have motivated skywatchers since the dawn of history. \nThis lecture is a live\, in-person event in Cameron Hall. You do not need to pre-register to attend — just show up. \nBIOGRAPHY: \nIvan Semeniuk reports on science for The Globe and Mail. A science journalist in print\, online and broadcast media\, his stories have informed Canadians about topics as diverse as space exploration\, climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior to joining the Globe he was the chief of U.S. correspondents for the journal Nature\, North American bureau chief for New Scientist magazine and a producer and columnist with Discovery Channel.  He is the writer and presenter of the television series Hubble’s Canvas and Cosmic Vistas and a contributing editor to Sky News magazine.
