The Sun - often a symbol of constancy in literature and mythology, yet we know that it is not eternal. What led to its birth? What might cause its death? This week we explore distant galaxies and stars with Prof Chelsea Sharon, an astrophysicist who investigates the role of supermassive black holes in the cessation of the birth of suns. If you’d like to learn more about Prof Sharon’s work, check out her website at https://csharon.commons.yale-nus.edu.sg/. Brought to you by the Yale-NUS Society for Academic Research.
