At this week's BAA Wednesday Webinar (7pm) we welcome Dr. Jacqueline Mitton to talk on "The astronomer Vera Rubin". 

Vera Rubin was one of the most important astronomers of recent times who discovered the 'galaxy rotation problem' which is taken to be evidence for dark matter. The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) was formally named the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in recognition of her work.
