Visionary capsuleers,
EVE Fanfest 2025 is bringing science to the stars, real and virtual. Dr. Becky Smethurst, award-winning astrophysicist, author, and science communicator, will be one of the guest keynote speakers on the main stage at Harpa, as well as Dr. Ronald Turner, NASA scientist and EVE Online player.
Dr. Becky Brings Science to the Masses
Dr. Smethurst, a researcher at the University of Oxford, has made it her mission to unravel the secrets of black holes and the formation of galaxies. With a PhD in astrophysics and a career dedicated to understanding the universe’s most extreme phenomena, she’s become one of the most recognizable voices in modern science. Her YouTube channel, Dr. Becky, has over half a million subscribers who tune in regularly to watch her break down complex astrophysical concepts with clarity and enthusiasm.
She is the author of A Brief History of Black Holes: and why nearly everything you know about them is wrong, and Space: 10 Things You Should Know – The secrets of 14 billion years for people short on time, as well as writing the foreword to Cosmos: Explore the Wonders of the Universe by DK Publishing.
Capsuleer Scientist
Dr. Turner, a senior science advisor at NASA, is a leading expert in space radiation risk, analyzing the dangers that cosmic rays and solar storms pose to deep-space explorers. His work directly contributes to the safety of future astronauts venturing beyond Earth’s orbit. Outside the lab, he’s also a capsuleer, navigating the perils of New Eden as an EVE player. His perspective bridges the gap between real-world spaceflight and the grand-scale conflicts of EVE Online.
This is your chance to hear from two experts who live and breathe space, whether through telescope or starship hulls. Tune in to the Fanfest livestream on CCP TV to witness the collision between the science of the real and virtual worlds.
