Science
DragosHi there !
In this event we will discuss, connect and bring inspiration to each other by talking about the science of understanding the Universe, black holes, the big bang and other such topics :)
In our group we are usually talking about Space and the final frontier, and other interesting topics in an non-formal, relaxed environment. Our discussions revolve around topics ranging from space exploration(human, robotic) to astrophysics, exoplanets, Science fiction, or we can talk about something different like our place in the universe as a species - we live on a giant spaceship - some call it Spaceship Earth - we sometimes talk about the challenges and opportunities in the age of AI and the accelerating change that we live in. All in all, it is usually a very interesting and entertaining discussion, so it should be fun :)
Our events are hybrid - both in person and online in order to accommodate both options. If you cannot find us or if you need help in connecting, contact us at +31615466090 (Dragos).

More about our meetings in general: The format of the meetings is open and flexible. This group is addressed to anyone who finds these topics interesting enough to come and meet others with similar interests and to explore knowledge together. The meetings are in no way addressed to researchers or people active in science areas - in fact the more diverse backgrounds people have, the more interesting the dynamic of the discussions will be. If you will like the meetings, anyone can propose topics for future discussions.
Agenda for the event:
19:00 Walk in(connecting) and get comfortable
19:10 Check-in and a short presentation about our discussion group
19:20 Short discussion about the interests of every participant and here each attendee can propose a discussion topic. If we have too many topics we will take a vote to decide which topic to discuss.
19:40 We'll start with a few space news or a presentation on a specific topic
20:00 Let's start a discussion about topics such as Planetary Science, Space Exploration, Science Fiction, etc
20:45 closing and check-out :)
21:00 We many times also stay longer if anyone wants to continue the discussion (we often do this and it's fun but it's not a requirement, of course)
And if you have ideas or topics that you would like us to address in our events - let's discuss these together - we are open to new events proposals.
In fact if any of you are interested, any of the participants can prepare a 10-20 minute talk/presentation on any given topic ranging from space exploration to science fiction, etc. And also at the beginning of the event we will invite everyone to propose discussion topics and then if there are more than 2 we will take a vote as to which topic to discuss.
Our events are hybrid - both in person and online in order to accommodate both options. If you cannot find us or if you need help in connecting, contact us at +31615466090 (Dragos).

When children have this fascination about the universe and the curiosity and drive to learn as much as possible about these topics, we saw that they can also benefit from and enjoy our discussions. To the extent that they are not loud or d…
