The Royal Institution will have the replay of the video available for 72 hours after the event for those of you that can’t make the new date. It will also be uploaded to YouTube in the future.

SUMMARY
Australian author, radio and TV presenter Dr Karl Kruszelnicki is back to discuss some very strange science facts.

In this talk, discover how Big Fossil Fuel successfully did a cover-up on Global Warming, how we’ve been making coffee the wrong way for fourteen centuries and the animal that grows a new anus every time it needs a poo.

Join us for some light-hearted learning and go head-to-head with Dr Karl in an interactive quiz at the end. 

DONATIONS TO THE ROYAL INSTITUTION
These online events are free for everyone to access. However, donations are an extremely important source of support for the Royal Institution and we would be most grateful if you are able to contribute. The RI are a small, independent charity and receive no government funding.  Their income from ticket sales and venue hire has been significantly reduced and will continue to fall. Donations, alongside our membership subscriptions are vital to their development and survival.

Please donate via the RI JustGiving page. Every donation they receive makes a difference. Thank you for your support.
