Have a story to tell from the 2010 World Science Festival?
Maybe it was something you learned? (Like, for instance, if the Earth were to be a black hole it would have to collapse to the size of a grain of sand.) Perhaps it was a serendipitous chat you had when bumping into your favorite scientist, artist, or author over the weekend's festivities? (I had a charming chat with Dr. John Mather and his wife about the crude pocket telescopes he used as a child that ultimately inspired him to take a closer look at the cosmos.) Or maybe it was a conversation you had with friends inspired by one of the programs? (Like a heated debate with a friend on whether the empirical study of consciousness is even a meaningful endeavor. Ahem, still looking at you, Chris.)
Whatever it was, if you have a story or an observation to share, email them to wsfstories@worldsciencefest.org for a chance to win a World Science Festival prize pack. Whether you were here in person or tuned in to one of our webcasts, we'd love to hear from you.read more
