Uploaded April 2022 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

Recorded on 26 April 2022

Lecture to mark 150 years of Science, Agriculture and Engineering at Newcastle University

What does your observable universe look like? How large is it, how old, what does it contain, how is it evolving, and how significant are we in it? This lecture will try and answer some of these questions and in doing so the speaker will reflect on the impact the best city in the world has had on his life and career – from doing the Great North Run to meeting Stephen Hawking!
