Talk 2: Moon Watcher

Date: Monday 23rd June
Time: 7pm for a 7.30pm start.
Location: Rossall Astronomy Centre:
…… we explore the ‘ins and outs’ of space travel and delve into the Star Trek universe. How much of the fictional adventures are actually based on fact? Can we really travel at ‘Warp factor 10?’; can we really have Scotty ‘beam us up?’,….and if not, why not?
Whilst the ‘Starship Enterprise’ is still a work of fiction, find out how we’d benefit – and why the human race needs to benefit – from our knowledge of Space and Nature…..
