Adapted from Robert Macfarlane’s bestselling book, “Underland” is a visually stunning documentary about the hidden worlds beneath Earth’s surface. Before the film, enjoy interactive activities from the Texas Field Station Network and UT’s Kemp Lab, and afterwards hear from University of Texas at Austin biologist and geoscientist Melissa Kemp, sharing insights from her own subterranean research and taking audience questions.

This is a featured event in the Texas Science Festival, a two-week-long celebration of scientific discovery and learning in Texas and beyond. The Long Center is a proud partner of the Festival, which is organized by the College of Natural Sciences at The University of Texas at Austin.
