「原來恆星不永恆」
「壯麗的宇宙，看不見的遠超看得見的」
以上是朱明中教授心中「宇宙的美好缺憾」。在5月24日的「智慧的探索」公開講座中，朱教授以梵高畫作《星夜》形容宇宙，有看得見的星星，亦有看不見的暗物質，而星星又終有爆炸、熄滅的一天。但正因為有着這些遺憾，令一群「傻仔傻女」（朱教授笑言他的學生是傻仔傻女）醉心研究，尋找所有未知的答案。講座詳情：bit.ly/2JCQSRj
【Beautiful Asymmetries in the Universe】
'Stars don't live forever.'
'In the magnificent universe, what we can't see is far more than what we can.'
In Prof. Chu Ming-chung's mind, these are the 'beautiful asymmetries in the universe'. In 'The Pursuit of Wisdom' Public Lecture on 24 May, Prof. Chu used Vincent van Gogh's art piece 'The Starry Night' to describe the universe, 'There are stars that we can find but, at the same time, dark matter that we can't find. Even if we can find the stars, they will one day explode and become black holes.' Wait, don't be too sad. These imperfections have attracted 'silly boys and silly girls' (Prof. Chu's way of calling his students) to immerse themselves in studying and reveal the unknowns.
