An Audience with David Attenborough

Watch "An Audience with David Attenborough" at the Re-opening Ceremony of the Kathleen Lonsdale Building

UCL’s Kathleen Lonsdale Building, home to UCL Earth Sciences and groups from Chemistry, Astrophysics, and Mathematics, was re-opened by Sir David Attenborough on Tuesday 17 April following a £27.5 million refurbishment. 

Sir David Attenborough took part in an an arm-chair style discussion facilitated by Professor Lucie Green from UCL Space & Climate Physics and followed by a Q&A from the audience. During the talk, Sir David was presented with a ceramic sculpture of the newly discovered species of ocean plankton named Syracosphaera azureaplaneta in honour of the BBC’s Blue Planet series.
