Kick Off Your Summer At The Starmus Festival Of Science & Arts

How do you plan to kick off your summer this year? How do you plan to kick off your summer this year? If you're like me, you will attend the Starmus Festival Of Science And Arts in gorgeous Trondheim, Norway, between 18 – 23 June. The Starmus -- "stars" and "music" -- Science and Arts Festival was the brain child of astrophysicist Brian May, lead guitarist for the rock band Queen, and his dissertation advisor, Garik Israelian, an astrophysicist who led the team that discovered the first observational evidence that supernova explosions are responsible for the formation of stellar mass black holes. This festival is designed to bring together the sciences -- astronomy, physics, and the biological sciences -- with art, film, music and other performing arts, specifically to communicate science to the public.
