The Science of Star Wars and Sex in Space at GAMMA.CON
Purpose:
Science Performer extraordinaire David Cannell will be in the GAMMA.CON 2019 program wowing audiences with shows to amaze and engage all ages. The Science of Star Wars explores the science shown in the films and how they compare to reality, he takes a look at what evolution may be like in the Star Wars universe and gives theory on how a lightsaber may be built. Then during GAMMA@Night David explores the very probing question of Sex in Space: Has anyone ever had sex in space? Is it even possible? What about in free fall? David explores the physics, biology and Hollywood depictions of Sex in Space with an open mind a good dash of humour.
