BRATISLAVA, Slovakia — The Starmus International Festival is a one-stop shop for science enthusiasts around the world. After a week of inspiring and thought-provoking lectures from a star-studded group of scientists and former astronauts coupled with performances by talented musicians, Starmus exceeded all expectations.
I was deeply inspired by the world-renowned oceanographer Sylvia Earle and her presentation on our vast oceans and the life dwelling in the deep. Over her 50-year career, Earle has spent thousands of hours underwater and published. Notably, she was the first woman to serve as chief scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration . Her dedication to the oceans and her ability to convey their marvels is truly commendable.
Hosted by comedian and writer Robin Ince, the Stephen Hawking Medal Ceremony also featured performances from Tony Hadley former lead singer of Spandau Ballet, keyboardist and composer Rick Wakeman and astrophysicist and former Queen guitarist Brian May to name but a few. The night was topped off by an energetic and entertaining set from the iconic punk-rock band The Offspring.
Last but not least we were taken on a journey through time with physicist Brian Greene, who used captivating graphics and visual imagery to transport us through the cosmos and into the distant future in his talk titled"Until the End of Time".
