Join us online to meet engineers Ryan and Laura, who are working on the Ariel space mission, as they share how we explore faraway exoplanets – and why we need super cold technology (called cryogenics) to do it.  You’ll take part in a fun quiz, watch an amazing liquid nitrogen demonstration, and discover how we make these space missions possible. 

Registration for this event opens on the 22nd January 2026.
