What are the top 30 mysteries in Astronomy?

Astronomers have learned a great deal in the last 50 years, but it seems the more we learn the more mysteries we uncover.  Mark tackles the top 30 mysteries in Astronomy, a few recently solved, many still a puzzle. 

Is there a 9th planet?  Where did our Sun come from?  Is there a Multiverse?  What will happen to life on Earth?  You’ll even learn the astronomical reason why barns are red!

Speaker:  Mark Johnston - NASA Solar System Ambassador
