Inspiring the Next Generation

RETURN TO LISTINGS

Come along to The Truth Behind Gravity at Robert Gordon’s College, to hear from NASA Astronaut, Rick Hieb, and NASA Scientist, Dr. Sue Lederer, who will give their experience and knowledge of zero gravity and how it affects us.
Dissecting the movies effects, Rick and Dr. Lederer will explore the sensationalized segments which bend the laws of physics, and show videos taken in the actual International Space Station and in space with play-by-play explanations of what it’s really like to ‘float in space’.
Places are first come, first served and must be booked in advance. Those who attend on the day without a booking cannot be guaranteed entry to the lecture. The event takes place at MacRobert Hall, Robert Gordon’s College, Schoolhill, Aberdeen AB10 1FE. Only blue badge holder parking is available on site. Parking is available nearby at Harriet Street and Denburn public car parks. Please car share or use public transport where possible.
