If you?re in Canberra this week make sure to check out the Australian Science Festival and Pathfinders, and pop in to say ?hi? to Popular Science. We?ll be there all week
Join Fuzzy from Video Hits on the 27th as she talks to some of Australia’s hottest young scientists and innovators about their careers and research. Learn about environmental impacts facing the animals of Antarctica and the Arctic, Solar Thermal Power, risks in early stage pregnancy and how engineering is helping to rebuild nerves.
On the 30th Dr Chuck Hahn, brewer and creator of popular beers like Hahn Premium, Hahn Super Dry and James Squire, drops by and explains the science and art of brewing. Chuck discusses how techniques used from 3000BC are coming back into fashion.
On the final day we go to space. We?ve landed on the moon. Now the next destination in our voyage outer space is likely to be Mars. We?ve managed to get a robot on there. So now the race is on to throw a human there. But at what cost?
There will of course be plenty of other events on in between so it?s worth stopping in on one or more of the days. For all the information, click here: http://sciencefestival.com.au
