Opening up the universe for all

Meet Emma, a sixth form student who’s incredibly passionate about science and outer space.
With the support of her QTVI (Qualified Teacher of Vision Impairment) Katherine, and through the work of our researchers, lead by Dr Chris Harrison and supported by partners at Portsmouth University, she has been able to experience the universe through sound.
The Audio Universe project explores new methods to represent data. It focuses on making the experience of learning about space, and making new scientific discoveries, accessible to all.
