First Friday- Science Fiction

Science fiction writers, filmmakers, and artists have inspired us to think beyond the Earth and work towards traveling to the stars, and to pursue space exploration. Explore hands-on activities and learn about synthetic biology, learn all about liquid nitrogen, and what happens to objects in ultra-low temperatures. Make a sci-fi costume and take a space selfie! Listen to music and see costumed Star Wars characters out and about the Center. Enjoy a special interactive presentation of Space in your Face, that will explore the probability of alien characters and design your own alien based on special space conditions - suitable for all ages. Watch kitschy sci-fi films with host Lord Blood Rah and unpack how sci-fi became a reality with a presentation from Ron Hipschman. Beer, wine, music, and food are available.

Featured Presentation with Andy Weir:   

Take a deep dive into our look into how science fiction influences science and plan to see our live virtual conversation (limited capacity) with The Martian and Project Hail Mary author Andy Weir in conversation with Dr. Jennifer Frazier.
