John Kovac It’s amazing realizing where I’m sitting. Here I am right beside famous scientist John Kovac here in Wolbach Library at Harvard University. I’m astonished to see this magnificent library and I can feel the knowledge surrounding me. What’s even more impressive is that this library is mainly focused on astrophysics. As we are about to begin the interview John Kovac prepares himself my drinking a bottle of water and laying out a couple of awards he has won.

What do you think your biggest accomplishment has been that you have been very proud of?
Well that’s a tough one! I would say two years ago we discovered some information on an inflation on the Big Bang. My team and I were very proud of our accomplishment and we were very cheerful to see that our discovery was published on so many science websites.
What is this “Inflation on the Big Bang” exactly?
My team and I discovered these B-modes and what we were able to determine is that the light began saturating the universe years after the Big Bang. I believe it was about 380,000 years after the Big Bang.
