Project

In 2018, the Royal Astronomical Society sponsored several outreach events to celebrate its 200th anniversary, including a collaboration with the Bounce Back Foundation to bring astronomy to one of the most marginalized groups: inmates of the HMP Brixton prison. RAS members Andreu Font-Ribera and Thomas Kitching (UCL) organized several talks about space exploration and the Universe, and collaborated with the artist Federica Ciotti in re-decorating the waiting area for visiting families.
