What if we could smell the solar system?

In this interactive family talk, Jez Turner, Assistant Professor in the Department for Foundation Engineering & Physical Sciences, explores how most of our Solar System and the Universe is not just what we see with visible light.

Through practical demonstrations, Jez will show how we can explore space through smell, touch, and sound.

Enjoy free drop-in science activities before and after the talk, 12noon-1pm & 2pm-3pm.
