Event Details

Planetarium show exploring questions like “what would happen if the sun became a black hole?”.

Break the Universe with LUniverse

Ever wondered what happens if the Sun turns into a black hole? How about what happens if two galaxies collide? Or what about what happens if the Sun disappears? In this interactive planetarium show, we will answer these questions by watching visual simulations of the planets and galaxies.

Show format

In a more impromptu planetarium show than our normal LUniverse Online series, we will answer your questions by testing them in our simulation! Andrew and a special guest will discuss your hypothetical 'what happens if' questions, as well as, try to create a simulation to show what happens if...! So come along with your best hypotheticals and let's play with physics!

This show is suitable for adults and children age 9+

But younger children that are particularly interested in science or astronomy may also join.
