Is the Universe Left or Right-Handed?

from Walkabout the Galaxy · host Josh Colwell, Addie Dove, Jim Cooney, Audrey Martin

Lefty astroquark Jim Cooney leads us on an exploration of what it means for the universe to have chirality. In other words, is there a break in parity in the way galaxies are distributed, or would the universe look the same if we saw its mirror image? The answer and its possible explanation are fascinating. And Josh gets to once again talk about one of his favorite topics, Saturn's rings, and new results on their age.
