Triple Peaks Library Conference Hall & Online
At this event, which celebrates the library's namesake, our guest lecturer will take us on a journey exploring some of the most prominent female researchers in the world of space science. It's easy to buy into the misconception that this field was mostly dominated by men, but our lecture aims to change that notion and prove that this hasn't been the case since at least the 18th century.
