SUMMARY:Film Night July
DESCRIPTION:A Journey to Our Nearest Stars – Part 1\nThe universe is full of all kinds of stars – from tiny red dwarves to majestic blue giants. Some of them dimly twinkle for billions of years while others burn up almost instantly by space standards. \nToday we are travelling to some of the most exciting ones\, with every new star we come across further and further away from our home planet. This journey of thousands of light years will start near our closest star – the Sun. Together with the Parker probe we will brush its scorching corona and take a peek in its fiery depths. After that we will leave our home system to go around Alpha Centauri and check out some exoplanets located closest to the Earth. \nA Journey to Our Nearest Stars – Part 2\nWe continue our journey visiting Betelgeuse and then onto WR102 which is believed to be the hottest star in the known universe.  So hot that it turns all objects in its vicinity into ash. \nWe look forwards to viewing this exciting and informative film with you

SUMMARY:Film Night June 27
DESCRIPTION:We are running two films tonight: \nSearch For the Edge of Space\nThe universe has long captivated us with its immense scales of distance and time. Many astronomers today have come to believe that what we can see represents only a small fraction of all there is. They are pioneering bold new theories that describe a cosmic landscape that extends far beyond the limits of our vision. What lies beyond the streams of galaxies that extend as far as our telescopes can see? Where does it all end? How do we fit within it? \nBBC The Sky at Night Destination Moon 2022\n2022 marks the fiftieth year since an astronaut last set foot on the moon. The Sky at Night team looks back at the legacy of the Apollo programme and forward to the future of lunar exploration.

SUMMARY:Film Night MAY - SUPER MASSIVE BLACK HOLES.
DESCRIPTION:MAY  Film Night: Super Massive Black Holes \nAt May Film night Ken Hulls uses two films to look in detail at Super Massive Black Holes. \nAfter an introduction\, the first looks in detail at the prediction and subsequent discovery of the super massive 4.5 million solar mass black hole at the middle of the Milky Way\, explaining the science and techniques involved. The second looks in detail at the making of the photograph of the 6.5 Billion solar mass black hole at the centre of the M87 galaxy\, published in late 2019 with update March 2021. The film looks at how the photograph of this object\, which is 55 million light years away was made\, and what it tells us. \n

SUMMARY:March Film Night - Solar Superstorms
DESCRIPTION:This documentary is about the turbulent nature of solar activity\, how superstorms (coronal mass ejection) that occur on the sun have impacted Earth in the past\, and what threat they may pose to us in the future. \nThe main film is 50 minutes long and will be followed by the September 2020 Sky at Night Show about new discoveries in the atmosphere of Venus (30 minutes long).

SUMMARY:Film Night - July - Large Hadron Collider
DESCRIPTION:In 2019 Ken Hulls organized a guided tour of the Large Hadron Collider and was joined on the visit by Alistair Emerson. The LHC is the most powerful particle accelerator on the planet and uses that power to reproduce energy levels and particle collisions just as they were in the universe seconds after time began. Film Night looks at: the why and how of the LHC doing that\, what the LHC has enabled us to discover and just as importantly what are the big questions which remain and how they might be solved. These questions directly relate to our understanding of how the universe evolved and why it is the way it is.
