Earlier this year the Royal Society published its Space: 2075 report, encouraging those in power to consider the implications of space exploration over the next 50 years for our societies, industries, economies and culture. 2075: A Space Odyssey invites you to ponder the question of where space travel is headed, literally and figuratively.
Discover how microgravity may provide conditions perfect for developing life-saving drugs, learn about the impact of the Sun’s magnetic fields on everything from the formation of galaxies to mobile phone communication, hear from leading engineers in space tech and immerse yourself in a newly established Mars colony via the medium of interactive theatre. You can even lose yourself in cosmic grooves and space-themed anthems courtesy of the Soundtracks DJs, the Ready Singer One choir and singer-songwriter Molly Barnes.
A bar and café will be open throughout the evening, with drinks, snacks and refreshments available for purchase.
Now, it’s time to exit the airlock and embark on your space odyssey. See the full programme on our website.
