Tune in this week as we talk with the founders of the foundation Dr. Svetlana Berdyugina and Dr. Jeff Kuhn to get an in-depth look into the the Colossus Telescope.
How is the Colossus telescope different from current large telescopes? What are its core technologies. What range of biosignatures will it be able to find? Theses questions, plus much more will be answered in this week’s ExoLife Hangout.
