Deep ocean lab
This event is part of the Royal Society's Summer Science Exhibition 2019.
What happens as you dive further and further into the dark ocean?
Join YouTuber and BBC presenter Greg Foot for the story of his scientific adventure to the deep.
With experiments and stunning videos, Greg will show you the high-tech submersibles that took him down a mind-blowing 1000ft into the Twilight Zone. He'll explain the importance of our oceans, and - thanks to Greg's work with the Blue Planet II team - uncover the effect we're having on them.
Plus you'll get the chance to meet a creature from the deep!
