For Livestream tickets,Both in person and online ticket holders will have access to the event recording.Join engineer and broadcaster Lucy Rogers as she blends hands-on demonstrations, modern science, and personal adventure to reveal the wonders visible to anyone who simply looks up.Lucy will begin by recreating classic Victorian experiments, including some from the Ri's own history —from John Tyndall’s light-scattering demonstrations explaining why the sky is blue, to the buoyancy that underpins everything from drifting clouds to soaring gliders. From there, the exploration widens to the many phenomena unfolding overhead: from migrating butterflies and murmurating starlings, to shimmering aurorae and the planets beyond.Interwoven throughout are stories from Lucy’s own field adventures, paired with clear scientific insight into navigation, flight, atmospheric optics, and the technologies that help us study the sky today. The talk will also bring the latest frontier research into focus, inviting you to rediscover the sky as a place of science, beauty, and ongoing discovery. Look up - and see the world in a whole new way.Copies of Lucy's book "Up: A Scientist’s Guide to the Magic Above Us" will be available for purchase after the talk.By booking to attend events at the Royal Institution, you confirm that you have read and agree to the Ri's Event image by Ritam Baishya via Unsplash - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/the-living-lab-above-science-of-the-sky-theatre/100001980476342052 - **Event Categories**: art, theatre, trips-adventures, virtual - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 7.9, max: 21.44, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: The Royal Institution - **lat**: 51.5097196 - **long**: -0.14252569999996467 - **full address**: The Royal Institution, 21 Albemarle Street, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The living lab above: science of the sky (Theatre) - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/ea501dcb51b30e58a577c0bb32d5183f1d6095b21cd3923bdaf633cb963e9af8-rimg-w1000-h750-dc184894-gmir.jpg?v=1769232405 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The living lab above: science of the sky (Theatre) being held? - **A:** The living lab above: science of the sky (Theatre) takes place on Mon, 20 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Mon, 20 Apr, 2026 at 08:30 pm at The Royal Institution, 21 Albemarle Street, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for The living lab above: science of the sky (Theatre)? - **A:** Ticket prices for The living lab above: science of the sky (Theatre) range from GBP 8 to GBP 21 depending on the ticket type.
