Love and the universe: explore their cosmic connections with talks, a pub quiz and drinks!
Boerhaave Borrelt presents: Astronomy on Tap
Love and heartbreak in space: join us on the day after Valentines day for drinks, talks, a quiz and more! Boerhaave Borrelt will host a special edition of Astronomy on Tap during this collaborative evening at the museum. An explosive collision between stars, the inescapable pull of a black hole, and the merging of galaxies. Just like the universe, love is full of attraction, unexpected encounters, transformations and things that take time. Take your date with you, or bring your love for astronomy.
The evening will start with the tried and true programming you’re used to from Astronomy on Tap. Two experts will both give a short talk of about 15-20 minutes. Between the two talks you can participate in the pubquiz, with prizes! Afterwards there’s plenty of time for another drink and to join some of our special activities. We advise you to register for this event via the link below.
