What does a refrigerator magnet have to do with detecting water on an exoplanet? A lot more than you might think! At the heart of almost every observation is the principle of electromagnetism, the means by which light, radio and x-rays propagate information across vast distances and deep time. Join Standley Lake Stargazing this week as we explore the mysterious concept of electromagnetism, its history, and how astronomers exploit it to study the edges of space!
