Um efni fyrirlestursins:
No place on Earth has loomed larger in the study of the moon than Iceland. From Johannes Kepler’s speculative description of how the Earth might look when viewed from the moon, to the Apollo moment of the 20th century, this lecture asks what it is about Iceland that unlocks the planetary imagination.
Fyrirlesturinn verður fluttur á ensku.
