Video summary of Saturday 07/10
On its last day, Passion for Knowledge wanted to approach the young audience with various activities organized in the context of Passion Txiki. Both Tabakalera and the Victoria Eugenia theatre were the venues where families enjoyed a scientific circuit, a show and a workshop geared towards kids. The festival ended with the final series of lectures given by Adela Cortina, on ethics and philosophy, and the Nobel Prize in Physics George Smoot; they were preceded by a fresh session of streamers, this time led by José Luis Crespo of the Quantum Fracture channel. Once again, the DIPC would like to thank all the members of the public for the exceptional response they have given by coming day after day to the Victoria Eugenia theatre and displaying their interest in science and knowledge. This is undoubtedly the best incentive to continue organizing events of this type. See you at the next edition of Passion for Knowledge!
