Students aged between 14 – 18 years old attended the event which took place in connection with the British Science Association’s National Science and Engineering Week.
As well as live demonstrations and talks by the speakers, the event included an exclusive 3D screening at the IMAX cinema about the Hubble telescope and a trip to the Natural History Museum.
Ian Webb, managing director at Adaptable Travel, said: “We pride ourselves on creating new and exciting ways to bring subjects such as science to life. It was really inspiring to listen to all of the presenters talk to the students and the event helped to show them exciting ways that science is being applied by using real-world examples.”
Steve Mould, an Oxford educated scientist who hosted the event, said: “The audience were really enthusiastic. It was great to see them getting excited about a subject I love. I got the chance to do some of my favourite experiments and they had loads of questions for me at the end.
“That’s what’s great about events like Science Live. It’s a chance to show people just how awesome science is.”
