The Australian Academy of Science's National Science Week event, Dr Karl in Canberra, featured Dr Karl Kruszelnicki and Professor Veena Sahajwalla FAA FTSE.
The two-part event was a resounding success, with over 1500 school students at the first show and over 1600 members of the public in the evening. Karl and Veena informed and entertained, answered audience questions, and engaged with guests after each show.
Here are some photos of the day. Contact the Academy for high resolution versions and permission to use the images publicly.
