Event Description: | Space expert Jerry Stone presents "an alternative history of space exploration", with stories from his unique collection which he has gathered over more than 50 years. Did you know about the rocket that was given a knighthood? Or how Wernher von Braun personally set a record for circling the Earth? However weird or amazing they may sound, they are all true - including The Day They Launched A Woodpecker. All welcome. Starts 7:30 pm. Jerry Stone will have some copies of his book "One Small Step" (price £15) which he will be happy to sign. |
