13:00 – 13:45
MAIN HALL

Join the Supervillain Academy: the magnificently morbid school for young villains in training and discover answers to questions such as “How do you travel in style across the galaxy? What do aliens really look like? What is the Fermi paradox and why should we care about it?” and, most importantly, the answer to the question: “Are we really alone?”…

Astrophysicist and author Matt Bothwell takes families on a fascinating tour of the universe through his second book in the Astrophysics for Supervillains series: The Great Alien Hunt. 

Matt Bothwell is an astrophysicist, science communicator and author, and the current Public Astronomer at the Institute of Astronomy, University of Cambridge.
