Astronomy on Tap Bern – Rainbows in Space

Explore the colours of the cosmos and celebrate the LGBTQ+ voices shaping science.

Join us for a special edition of Astronomy on Tap Bern, organised in collaboration with Queer UniBE in celebration of Pride Month. 🌈

This time, we are exploring Rainbows in Space: from colourful phenomena in the Universe to the human side of science and academia. Space is full of light, colour, and diversity — and so is the community of people trying to understand it.

We’re excited to welcome three speakers for this special evening:

Marie-Luise Steinmeyer ETH Zurich 🌟

Casper Farret Jentink University of Geneva 🌌

Loraine Habluetzel University of Bern 🌈

After the talks, we will also host a short panel discussion with the speakers and guests about being LGBTQ+ in science and academia, followed by questions from the audience.

Admission to the event is free, but we appreciate your help with planning by registering via the Eventbrite website.

Drink in the Universe and quench your thirst for astronomy! Add us on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.Doors open at 18:30.
