Hoe ontstaat een ster ✨

What do you think of when you think of a star? A ball of light probably, but do you know what it is made of? Astronomer Marijke Haverkorn (Radboud University Nijmegen) uses a cotton candy to show how a star is formed. Even more fun: she explains how to predict where a star will form. University of the Netherlands is coming to Carré! On October 28 we celebrate our 10 year anniversary with a special performance: What if time stops? Tickets: https://carre.nl/voorstelling/univers...
