Next meeting: Tues 19 February at 7.00pm
Visit to the Immersive Vision Theatre,
Plymouth University
The Immersive Vision Theatre (previously known as the Planetarium) forms part of the "Environmental Futures & Big Data Impact Lab” - a partnership of seven, world class Devon-based organisations including: Universities of Plymouth and Exeter, Plymouth Marine Laboratory, Met Office, Rothamsted Research and several others.
Luke Christison from Plymouth University, will give us a brief introduction to the work of the Impact Lab before taking us on a journey to the stars. This will be using the 3D projector which has internet links to NASA and some of the latest space research work being undertaken.
Seating is limited to 40. There is a charge of £5 for this visit, to be collected on the night. You will receive an email invitation in January. Bookings will then be taken on a first come first served basis and, if necessary we will create a waiting list. If there is an over-subscription a second visit will be arranged.
For your information - Prof Iain Stewart's 'Sustainable Earth Institute' is collaborating with the Impact Lab. Thus we have a link with the talk to be given by Professor Stewart on Tuesday 12 March.
