Get ready for a cool adventure into space and science!
Join engineers Ryan and Laura, who are working on the Ariel space mission, as they share how we explore faraway planets called exoplanets – and why we need super cold technology (called cryogenics) to do it. After the talk (which will last about 30 minutes), we’ll have lots of hands-on space activities for everyone to take part in. It’s going to be a blast – science has never been so cool!
Registration for the event opens on 22nd January 2026.
