Fireballs in the sky: how meteorites shaped our planet

This lecture describes the wonder of meteorites – where they come from, what happens when they land (often with a bang!) and how they can help answer the biggest questions in science including the origins of life on Earth, and chances of finding life on other planets. The focus will be on carbonaceous chondrites, which come from asteroids that were born in the cold and dark outer reaches of the solar system. It has been an exciting time to study them – a carbonaceous chondrite landed in Gloucestershire in 2021, and two carbonaceous chondrite asteroids have recently been visited by space missions. Some of the fascinating results from research on these samples will be described.

Foodbank

"The foodbank was there when we really needed it, it was an absolute lifeline." We don't think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That's why we provide three days' nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK. https://burngreave.foodbank.org.uk/

Whether you’re a performer, musician, costume designer, lighting or sound technician interested in working with dance artists, you’re welcome to join us to meet each other and the team here at Phoenix. The event will include a short studio sharing from our Graduate Summer Intensive participants, followed by refreshments and music.
