Get ready to go on a journey into space for our next UNE Sci Flicks event this Thursday 22 September, at Armidale's Belgrave Cinema.
UNE lecturer in parasitology, Dr Tommy Leung will unpack the science behind the fiction in the 1979 classic sci-fi blockbuster, Alien, and will take the audience on a deep dive into the world of parasites and alien creatures.
To give you a taste of what to expect, we had a chat to Dr Leung about some of film's key themes, and whether we should be worried about coming across an alien parasite in space.
