Meet The Astrophysicist: Dr. Katie Mack

The universe started with a bang — but how will it end? Join us for an evening with theoretical astrophysicist Dr. Katie Mack, and journey to the farthest reaches of the cosmos to find out!

Meet The Astrophysicist: Dr. Katie Mack

About Meet The Astrophysicist: Dr. Katie Mack

The Big Bang Theory tells the story of the beginning of the Universe, our cosmic home for the last 13.8 billion years. But how does the story end? I’ll share what modern astrophysics tells us about the ultimate fate of the cosmos, and what the catastrophic destruction of all reality would look like to anyone still around to see it.

After the discussion with Dr. Katie Mack in Dynamic Earth’s 6K Planetarium, don’t miss out on the book signing where you can buy your own copy of “The End of Everything (Astrophysically Speaking)“.

Book now to secure your place on Monday 22nd April at 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm. Complimentary tea, coffee, and biscuits are included in your ticket.

This event is suitable for ages 12+.
