Journey with our local astrophysicist from the Beecroft Art Gallery into the darkest corners of the cosmos, as part of Supermassive Space Weekend.
Is it possible to travel through time into the distant future, or the ancient past? What would happen if you fell into a black hole? Do wormholes really exist? Why can't we travel faster than the speed of light? In this talk, we will discuss the real science of time travel, touching on; black holes (and their spaghettifying effects), lightspeed travel, and the possibility of exploring the cosmos via wormholes.
This talk is accessible for ages 10+. Older children and adults will enjoy this talk, children younger than 10 are welcome, but some may struggle with understanding the content.
Prebooking is essential. Please note that tickets are per person attending the talk. Every attendee will need a ticket.
