Professor Brian Cox - Horizons

23. maaliskuuta 2023 Kulttuuritalossa koetaan häikäisevä elokuvamatka professori Brian Coxin johdattamana. Se pohtii muun muassa olemassaolon kysymyksiä, kuten miksi universumi on olemassa? Miten elämä sai alkunsa, kuinka harvinaista se voi olla ja mikä on elämän merkitys kosmoksessa?

Horizons takes us on a dazzling cinematic journey. A story of how we came to be and what we can become. Using state-of-the-art LED screen technology, Stage will be filled with images of far-away galaxies, alien worlds, supermassive black holes and a time before the Big Bang. What is the nature of space and time? Why does the Universe exist? How did life begin, how rare might it be and what is the significance of life in the Cosmos?

What does it mean to live a small, finite life in a vast, eternal Universe?

The deepest of questions will be explored using the latest advances in our understanding of quantum theory, black holes, biology, planetary science, astronomy and cosmology. Horizons is a celebration of our civilisation, of our music, art, philosophy and science; an optimistic vision of our future if we continue to explore Nature with humility and to value ourselves and our fellow human beings.

Brian Cox is the professor in particle physics at the university of Manchester and is considered the natural successor for the BBC’s scientific programming by David Attenborough.
