WSS S5E5: Under the Radar: Living, Breathing Detection Signals
Radars keep us informed - whether it be day-to-day, allowing us to predict the weather, or warning us of potentially catastrophic large-scale threats looming out in space. Western University Physics and Astronomy Researcher Wayne Hocking has spent his career operating radars at every point in their lifespan — from design, to research, and eventually leading to an environmentally friendly clean up. Listen to learn about the challenges of producing radars all around the world, the surprising singularity of Ontario’s geography, and how radars evolved in our culture.
