报告人简介：Dr. Webster Cash is Professor of Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences & Professor of Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the University of Colorado, Boulder. He decided to forego his interest in medieval history at the age of 8 years when his parents took him to a public lecture on Project Ozma – the first SETI (Search for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence) project. A few years later, as a freshman at MIT he became an X-ray Astronomer and joined the ranks of Space Scientists, helping in the search for Black Holes. He graduated in Physics in 1973 and moved to the University of California at Berkeley where he completed his PhD in Physics, launching the first imaging Extreme Ultraviolet telescope on a sounding rocket. In 1979 he joined the Department of Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences at the University of Colorado where he has remained to this day, helping found the Center for Astrophysics and Space Astronomy and even taking a turn as Department Chair.
