Episode Synopsis
Mario Cabrera tells us about the specialized detectors used in professional telescopes. He talks about how he's helping to develop new detectors that don't require coolant and provide more science for less money. He talks about the ways a detector is tested, and how he's walked through miles of waist-deep snow (both ways!) in the name of science.
