Orbiting Frog

I'm Robert Simpson and I work at the Zooniverse, a world-leading Citizen Science platform. I am an astrophysicist and my research involves understanding how stars form. I also love the web! You can hear me on the Recycled Electrons podcast.

Stargazing Oxford is Today!

Join us at the Physics Department on Keble Road, near St. Giles in Oxford. From 2-10pm we’ll be manning stands, doing craft activities and answering questions. We’ll also be doing some remote observing throughout that time and there will be a planetarium continuously in operation too.

In our auditorium there are mini lectures (in groups of three) at 3pm, 5pm and 7pm. We’re be playing games - quiz show style - at 4pm and 8pm. At 9pm thee is a live debate about aliens. At 6pm you can catch me and Chris Lintott recording a live episode of Recycled Electrons (http://recycledelec.com).

We have a cafe and cool demonstrations throughout the day too. This is all FREE!

Queries can be emailed to astrofest@astro.ox.ac.uk or just tweet me @orbitingfrog
