Mission ALIA
Science and creation for secondary schools with the Institut d’Estudis Espacials de Catalunya
Mission ALIA is an educational project that relates scientific dissemination with literary and artistic creation. Six groups of young people studying in secondary schools in Barcelona will immerse themselves in some of the most outstanding research programs of the Institute for Space Studies of Catalonia (IEEC). Accompanied by the scientists who lead them, a science fiction writer and an artist, they will write their own "Martian chronicles", which will be part of the CCCB's programming. What if Mars is on Earth?
