THE SCIENCE OF SCIENCE FICTION

Laser battles, cloaking devices and strange alien creatures. Find out what the films get right and wrong, with Paul as your navigator and science officer.

What is The Science of Science Fiction?

The Science of Science Fiction is a family science talk that explores the universe of the movies. From laser battles across light years to cloaking devices, strange alien creatures and exotic new worlds, Paul looks at what Hollywood gets right and what it gets wrong.

What to expect from The Science of Science Fiction

The Kessel run in 12 parsecs? What was Han Solo talking about? It's questions like these that set the course, with Paul as your navigator and science officer as you explore the universe together.

It's a brilliant one for families who love a space film on the sofa. Children get to explore the science behind the films they know, and grown-ups might find a few favourite scenes are not quite as scientific as they thought. Just remember to set your phasers and blasters to stun before you arrive.
