Story
Science fiction allows us to go places we can only dream of seeing - other worlds, distant stars, entirely different galaxies. While not every story is concerned with the hard science behind space travel and other futuristic ventures, fiction can give us amazing insight into what we could be capable of and what we dream of doing. In these 10 lectures, Professor Erin Macdonald interweaves real science and the achievements of the imagination to reveal the truth that underlies our favorite stories and sheds light on what the future may hold.

Story
La ciencia ficción nos permite visitar lugares que sólo podemos soñar ver: otros mundos, estrellas lejanas, galaxias enteramente nuevas. No todos los relatos se ocupan de la ciencia real que hay detrás de los viajes espaciales y otras empresas futuristas, pero la ficción puede ofrecer una perspectiva asombrosa de hasta dónde podrían llegar nuestras capacidades y de lo que soñamos con hacer.

Story
Quando andiamo al cinema solitamente lo facciamo per svagarci e trascorrere qualche ora a rilassarci, meravigliarci, divertirci, sognare, emozionarci e talvolta riflettere. O, almeno, è così che dovrebbe andare. Se però il film tocca argomenti a noi noti, magari con pretese di realismo, può capitare che la nostra mente non sospenda l’incredulità e analizzi l’opera, finendo con apprezzarla od odiarla a prescindere dalla sua bellezza. C’è una categoria particolarmente fastidiosa, sotto questo aspetto, che si aggira nel buio delle sale cinematografiche: gli astrocosi.

L'astronauta Paolo Nespoli da Houston racconta le sue esperienze nello spazio al coach Claudio Belotti a Milano. Le sue oltre 40.000 ore di addestramento e i suoi 313 giorni nello spazio raccontati in modo avvincente, emozionante e coinvolgente, diventano una metafora per esprimere e trasmettere insegnamenti e fornire spunti che possano essere facilmente applicati anche sulla terra, per la vita di tutti i giorni, grazie alle analisi e alle considerazioni del coach trainer. Attraverso i racconti di Paolo si scoprono dettagli straordinari sulle missioni spaziali a cui ha partecipato.

Adrian e Luca ci guidano con ironia alla scoperta di fatti e curiosità sui balzi scientifici e tecnologici compiuti dall'umanità: dal terreno verso l'alta atmosfera, dall'orbita terrestre a quella lunare, fino a giungere sulla superficie del nostro satellite. Dalle missioni del passato a quelle del presente, per poi concludere con uno sguardo sul futuro, un incontro per scoprire insieme quanto questo lungo viaggio abbia cambiato non solo la nostra Storia, ma anche la nostra vita quotidiana.
