Is there a cure for ageing? What happened at the Big Bang? What do we need to build a bionic human? How do you design a spacesuit?

These are some of the many questions that were answered over the past weekend at the New Scientist Live exhibition. Organised by the well-recognised magazine New Scientist, this unique show took place over four days to cover a wide range of topics across five categories: Cosmos, Technology, Earth, Engineering and Humans.

From astronauts to nuclear physicists, neurologists and philanthropists, the brightest minds were here to educate the youngest up to the oldest generation on those fascinating and mysterious topics.

And who better than our Universe platform to manage the ticketing for this science event? Selling tickets directly on New Scientist’s website and Facebook page with zero re-direction and in less than four clicks resulted in over 85% of tickets sold online!

Universe was also onsite at the event to manage all ticket scanning and the box office to make this second edition of New Scientist Live the most successful one so far.

New Scientist Live will be back next year for an even bigger show, but until then: “Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.” – Albert Einstein
