Do we really need to go to space, or any other hostile frontier for that matter? Is it a cost-effective way of doing research or solving humanity’s greatest challenges? In some cases, it certainly is. But the real seduction of exploration may lie in fulfilling an innate, collective, human desire. As JFK famously said, we do these things ‘not because they are easy, but because they are hard’. This video examines exhibits at LIFE AT THE EDGES that deal with exploration.
LIFE AT THE EDGES, the latest free exhibition opening on 22nd June at Science Gallery at Trinity College Dublin, will examine life in extraordinary environments, alongside humankind's passion for exploration, adventure and discovery. The exhibition runs until 30th September 2018. Visit dublin.sciencegallery.com/ledges to find out more.
