Astronomical distances require astronomical measurements. This week Mike discusses the vastness of space.

Space is huge, but what does that mean? Mike discusses how astronomers measure distances between the many different bodies in space and what you might find between them.

Astro Brief is a collaboration between KSMU, the Missouri Space Grant, and MSU's Department of Physics, Astronomy and Materials Science. Hosted by Dr. Mike Reed, Astro Brief focuses on astronomical events, the field of astronomy, and astronomy-related guests. It airs Thursdays at 9:45 am on KSMU.

Distinguished Professor of the Missouri State University Department of Physics, Astronomy and Materials Science.
