Professor Brian Cox Tickets
Murat Theatre | Indianapolis, Indiana
Join Professor Brian Cox in Horizons, A 21st Century Space Odyssey at the Murat Theatre on Sunday, May 8th, 2022 with Robin Ince as The Comedian. Grab your tickets now for a dazzling cinematic journey, of how we came to be and what we can become, a universe filled with far-away galaxies, alien worlds, supermassive black holes and a time before the Big Bang. Professor Cox will explain, what is the nature of space and time? Why does the Universe exist? How did life begin, how rare might it be, and what is the significance of life in the Cosmos?
The deepest of questions will be explored using the latest advances in our understanding of quantum theory, black holes, biology, planetary science, astronomy and cosmology. Horizons is a celebration of our civilization, of our music, art, philosophy and science; an optimistic vision of our future if we continue to explore Nature with humility and to value ourselves and our fellow human beings. Brian will once again be joined by co-host of The Infinite Monkey Cage and award-winning comedian Robin Ince, perhaps the only collection of sentient atoms in the observable Universe capable of overseeing a Q&A with an audience of 10,000 people whilst wearing an old cardigan.
