Talk by Geoff Saunders

The European Space Agency must be one of the best kept secrets in the UK!

Countries of Europe have been co-operating on space science for 50 years and have achieved some spectacular successes. You will learn about our contribution to the International Space Station and about Europe’s own Space Port in South America, from where European and Russian rockets regularly leave to deploy satellites and planetary missions. The talk will concentrate on some of Europe’s space missions, past, present and future with video and animation to illustrate our achievements.

We’re delighted to offer our afternoon talks on a Pay What You Can basis. We believe everyone should have access to educational and cultural opportunities, and that no one should be excluded because of their financial circumstances. Our talks are £7 for all – if anyone feels they need to pay less than this, please call the team or visit us in person.
