Why should you attend this live stream?
Here’s the honest answer: we love space, and we think you do too. A few times a year, we sit down with people who’ve studied the sky long enough to make it feel close, and this is one of those nights.
We picked the Space Station because it’s one of the few places where science, cooperation, and sheer human courage share the same kitchen. It flies over your head several times a day. Yet most of us don’t know how it works, who lives there, or what it’s teaching us.
On May 7, we’ll fix that together. Bring coffee, bring your kids, bring questions. We want a conversation, not a lecture.
Who is Miracle Chibuzor Marcel?
Miracle Chibuzor Marcel is our guest speaker, and we’re grateful he agreed to join the Free AstroScience stage. He’s a passionate communicator who has spent years turning space research into stories people can actually picture in their heads.
He’s joining our Science and Cultural Group for one evening only. Expect sharp explanations, a warm tone, and plenty of room for live Q&A.
What exactly is the Space Station?
Let’s start simple. A space station is a habitable spacecraft built to keep humans alive and working in orbit for long stretches. The two you’ll hear about most are:
- The International Space Station (ISS), a joint project shared across several nations.
- China’s Tiangong station, the pride of China’s space programme, crewed by teams of three astronauts who swap out every six months.
The ISS zips around our planet at roughly **27,000 km/h, about 400 km above the ground. Think of that for a second: while you sip your espresso, it completes a full lap of Earth every 90 minutes.
