Imagined planet

During this Twitter Spaces event Sci-fi loving scientists discuss the scientific accuracy of their favourite books and films.

Join our Sci-fi loving scientists over on Twitter who will be discussing their favourite films, books and magazine, and unpicking where the genre gets the science right and where it remains firmly in the realms of fiction.

This Twitter Spaces event will give you the chance to put your questions to our panel and share your own opinions on the predictive power of science fiction and the ongoing influence its writers have had on the careers of scientists and the direction of academic research.

Imperial Lates

This event is part of Imperial Lates: Sci-fi.

Where does science end and science fiction start? Join us at Imperial Lates as Imperial’s scientists explore the scientific basis of our spacefaring, technological enhanced futures through talks, artistic workshop and live demos.  

Hear from scientists, science fiction writers and sci-fi fans discussing where the movies get the science wrong, how science fiction inspired modern day research and what science of today might inspire the visionary books, films and comic of tomorrow.
