Sound of Space and Agriculture in Space Talks
in Polish and English

Saturday 22 February

FREE Talks 

The Sound of Space

Although in science-fiction films space is full of sounds such as explosions, rocket engines, etc., in reality it is absolutely silent. The scientists have yet found ways to “eavesdrop” stars, planets and their moons. Listen to Tomasz Rozek speaking about the sound of space.

10.30am (Polish version) and 12noon (English version)

Agriculture in Space

If we want to live on Earth’s Moon or on Mars, if we want to build a permanent science base there, we have to learn how to grow food in these unwelcoming environments. Can we do that now? What is the biggest challenge there? Listen to Tomasz Rozek speaking about agriculture in space!

1.30pm (Polish Version) and 3.00pm (English version)
