Take a guided tour of the invisible universe on Dark Matter Night.

On October 26, dark matter researchers Katie Mack and Ken Clark shared insights into the ubiquitous, mysterious matter that makes up the majority of stuff in our universe.

Dark Matter Night was a live webcast brought to you by Perimeter Institute and the McDonald Institute. Starting off the evening, Katie Mack discussed the theoretical and observational foundations of dark matter at Perimeter Institute, where she holds the Hawking Chair in Cosmology and Science Communication. Next, Ken Clark, an associate professor at the Arthur B. McDonald Canadian Astroparticle Physics Research Institute, shared experimental approaches that could help solve the riddle of dark matter. We also got a guided video tour of SNOLAB, the state-of-the-art underground laboratory two kilometres beneath Sudbury.
