What do aliens look like? What’s the worst holiday destination in the Universe? And could there be another Earth out there?
Join astronomer and author Matt Bothwell as we hunt for signs of life across the Galaxy. We’ll search for planets in other Solar Systems, and learn about all the weird and wonderful ways scientists think we (might) be able to travel around the Universe.
We’ll take a trip across the frozen seas of Jupiter’s moons, to planets made of lava in the deepest depths of space. We might even try to answer the biggest question of all… are we alone in the Universe?
Matt's latest book 'Astrophysics for Supervillains 2: The Great Alien Hunt' will be available for purchase and signing after the talk.
As with all our family theatre talks, this event is designed to be enjoyed by adults and children together. All young people under the age of 13 need to be accompanied by a paying adult and those aged 4 and above need a ticket to attend.
