An Extraterrestrial Night Out
Friday
17 February 2006
18:30 - 22:00
It's a drop-in, fun packed night with something to suit every earthling. As NASA launches its 10-year mission to planet Pluto and scientists scour the Deep Impact comet contents for the ingredients to primordial soup', are we any closer to finding cosmic life? Have a drink and enjoy your Friday night with our selection of shows, science, experiments and comedy.
Alien Extravaganza Open up a tin of primordial soup, listen to sounds from outer space, meet an alien and help us send a rocket into orbit in this fast paced, action packed extravaganza of a show!
Punk Science A rip-roaring ride through star systems, crop circles, UFOs, extraterrestrials and maybe a peek at the 1986 cult film. Punk Science asks: is anybody out there? If so... how do we find them? What would they be like? Are they already here? Does anybody actually care?
Fact or Fantasy Nick Pope, a reformed extraterrestrial sceptic, will talk about running the Ministry of Defence's UFO project and the evidence that has made him a believer. On the other hand, Professor Chris French will offer psychological explanations behind the paranormal and take a critical view of witness accounts.
