Making Sense of Astronomy
How can we improve communication of astronomy to the deaf community? By creating better BSL for the science, that’s how! A ground-breaking Scottish project has done just that, creating over 90 new signs; from signs for each of the planets, to signs for concepts such as black holes and red giants. Join Dr Audrey Cameron of the Scottish Sensory Centre, Gary Quinn of Heriot Watt University and Tania Johnstone of the Royal Observatory Edinburgh to find out how the signs have been developed and see the signs in action through astronomy activities. This event will be BSL interpreted.
