In 2011 I pitched some hands on activity and demo ideas to be run on the UK Space Agency stand at the 2012 National Big Bang Fair, Birmingham NEC. I coordinated a team of PhD students and space scientists to run:
- Albedo experiments
- Meteorite Exhibit (part of Solar System in a Box)
- Comet making
- Seeing in the Near Infra Red
Joining us on the stand were experts from the University of Leicester and RAL that worked on instruments for the James Webb space telescope and Bepi-Colombo.
A write up of the event is available from the UKSA website with more pictures on the UKSA and BIS flikr streams. I also feature in the 2012 National Big Bang Fair video making a comet. Click here for all my images from the event.
