Would you like to know how Earth's magnetic field protects us from space radiation? Do you want to hear how the magnetic field sounds and has developed over the last 100,000 years? Then join us at Solbjerg Sqaure Thursday 11 April for a magnetic afternoon
What does Earth's magnetic field sound like? This and much more you can find out by visiting Solbjerg Sqaure on Thursday 11th April. Using data from ESA's Swarm satellites among other sources, the artists Klaus Nielsen and Nikolai Linden-Vørnle have created a sound installation that makes it possible to listen to the development of the magnetic field over the past 100,000 years at 32 different locations on the planet
As a warmup, there will be a panel debate on the square about the science behind the work with Chris Finlay (DTU Space) and Klaus Nielsen (Maple Pools) and with Tina Ibsen (RumSnak) as moderator.
And if you bring the children along, you can build LEGO mosaics in giant format. LEGO is joining us and bringing a lot of bricks! Everyone is invited to come and build mosaics showing images of space. Michael Linden-Vørnle (DTU Space) will be there to assist, so there will be ample opportunity to get all your questions about planets, rockets and space travels answered.
14-16 LEGO activities
16-17 Panel debate on the square
17-18 The sound installation is played
Afterwards, at Frederiksberg Main Library, you can attend a live recording of the popular podcast RumSnak, where the two hosts, Tina Ibsen and Anders Høeg Nissen, are joined by Nils Olsen (DTU Space), who has worked with the Earth's magnetic field as part of the Swarm mission, Anja Strømme (ESA), who leads the entire project, as well as the two cartoonists behind "Ørsted: He set power to the world", Sussi Bech and Ingo Milton.
