Glasgow Science Centre is proud to host the David Elder Lectures in partnership with the University of Strathclyde's Department of Physics. The David Elder lecture series presents a line-up of fascinating talks by expert astronomers, spaceflight pioneers, award-winning science writers and broadcasters. This lecture series continues the tradition of monthly astronomy lectures in Glasgow which began with the first David Elder Lecture in 1905!

This regular monthly programme of talks in The Planetarium runs over the winter months each year. Each lecture lasts approx. 1 hour and is best suited to older teenagers (aged 16 years+) and adults.

Prof. Massimiliano Vasile from the University of Strathclyde talks on the circular space economy and the future engineering challenges of recycling space junk and mining asteroids. Part of the David Elder Lecture series back for the 10th year in The Planetarium at Glasgow Science Centre.
