A Libyan Space Odyssey - A Presentation by Andrew Lound

Join us on the day of the UK’s partial Solar Eclipse for this talk from Andrew Lound

In 2006 a team of space science educators & scientists visited Libya to work with the British Council and Libyan authorities to participate in a Solar Eclipse Public Awareness Campaign and to work with Libyan scientists to study the total solar eclipse from the Libyan Desert.

Andrew Lound led the UK side of the project and presents a fascinating, funny and dramatic story of an adventure of a lifetime.

Beautifully illustrated with images, accompanied by music, this is an Odyssey presentation to savour.
