Experience Description
In the cult cartoon series Rick and Morty, a crazed, abusive old scientist takes his grandson on high-risk adventures in the multiverse. They encounter alien worlds, strange copies of themselves and a generally infinite array of different possible lives – and deaths. Is there anything to these wild rides through alternative dimensions of space and time? That's what TV presenter Rick Edwards and science writer Dr Michael Brooks have decided to find out. In this light-hearted, interactive show, they'll be discussing why quantum physicists and cosmologists believe in alternate universes, whether we can reach them, and just how far you'd have to travel to reach the nearest copy of yourself.
