Imagine... Science: Mums on Mars
Cat Bohannon and Kelly Weinersmith with Selina Brown, Adam Rutherford and guests
Join Cat Bohannon and Kelly Weinersmith with Selina Brown, Adam Rutherford and guests for a science comedy fashion show, where models and dancers will present new wearables on a science-focused catwalk. Each piece is designed in collaboration with Cat, Kelly, and a prominent feminist artist, using the latest cutting-edge scientific research to model what pregnant and postpartum bodies might really need to make it on Mars.
Weinersmith’s A City on Mars: Can We Settle Space, Should We Settle Space, and Have We Really Thought This Through? won the 2024 Royal Society Science Book Prize and Bohannon’s Eve: How The Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution was shortlisted for the 2024 Royal Society Science Book Prize.
