At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.
Christopher Michael Hirata, more commonly known as Chris Hirata, has been an outstanding young professor of physics and astronomy at Ohio State University.
Chris Hirata graduated with a bachelor's degree in physics from Caltech in 2001 at 18. At 16 years of age, he did research on the colonization of Mars for NASA.
In 2005, Princeton University granted Chris Hirata his Ph.D. for his astrophysics thesis: Weak Gravitational Data Analysis and Lensing Theory. He worked at Caltech as an assistant professor from 2006-2012 before becoming a full professor and transferring to Ohio State University.
In 2013, Prof. Chris Hirata joined the Ohio State University's physics and astronomy departments.
He works in cosmology, with a varying fascination with inflation, the cosmic microwave background, large-scale structures in the universe, and dark energy. Hirata is a theorizer, but he has interests in statistics, data analysis, and collaboration with observational programs and his research has more of an emphasis on cosmic microwave background, dark energy, accelerating expansion of the universe, the general relativity, galaxy clusters, and the large-scale structure of the universe (and the formation of these structures, the Reionization epoch), the gravitational influence of dark matter, cosmological perturbation theory, supersonic velocity currents, thermal velocities along with the recombination epoch.
Christopher Michael Hirata has an estimated net worth of $1-5 million, and his net worth stems from his earnings as a cosmologist.
It is not known how much Chris Hirata is earning per year.
Chris Hirata is 5 ft 8 in (173 cm) tall.
Chris Hirata is 39 years old as of 2021.
Christopher Michael Hirata, also called Chris Hirata, was born on November 30, 1982, in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Chris Hirata was an intellectual child from his childhood who won a gold medal in the International Physics Olympiad at the age of 13. At 16, Hirata worked with NASA on a project on the colonization of Mars. Hirata did his bachelor's degree in physics from Caltech in 2005 and earned a Ph.D. from Princeton University at 22.
Around the age of 32, he had already established himself as an astrophysics professor at Caltech, where he initially worked as an assistant professor.
Chris Hirata was married to Annika Peter on August 2o, 2005. He met his wife, Annika Peter, at Princeton University, where she came to do her Ph.D. in physics.
They have a son named Sebastian. He lives in Ohio, United States as of June 2022.
Hirata is a renowned astronomer best recognized for his theoretical contributions to cosmology, his very accurate cosmological measurements, and his in-depth technical research on space telescopes and detectors.
He is a member of NASA's proposed WFIRST (Wide-Field Infrared Survey Telescope) space telescope.
Christopher Michael Hirata received the 2018 New Horizons in Physics Prize, also known as the Oscar of Science, for his fundamental contributions to our understanding of how the universe's first galaxies formed as well as for developing and using the most potent tools of precision cosmology. In 2021 he was awarded Distinguished Scholar Award by Ohio State. Besides these, he also received the Presidential Early Career Award in 2012, Simons Foundation Investigator in 2013, and Helen B. Warner Prize in 2014.
The astrophysicist, Chris Hirata, as a teenager, was so into studying to be an American cosmologist majoring in astroparticle physics that he had few hobbies to focus on in his free time. He enjoyed swimming and, occasionally, a novel.
