The aims of Science in the Space shed are to:1) Inspire children, young people and their families to pursue studies and careers in STEM subjects and the space sector,2) Provide inspiration to women of all ages with a gender balanced, inspirational programme of scientific speakers.3) Create a longlasting legacy for the activity by recording, editing, publishing and promoting the interviews as podcasts.We will do this by presenting a series of scientific talks and science-related music performances at major music festivals in summer 2018, bringing accessible and gender-positive STFC science to a diverse range of festival-goers in an informal setting.Science in the Space Shed will go to three major music and arts festivals with science content - Blue Dot (Jodrell Bank, Lancashire), The Great Musuem at the Great Exhibition of the North (Newcastle) and Green Man (Brecon Beacons, Wales) - to deliver a programme of conversations, interactive events and science-inspired music, with a theme of particle physics, accelerator physics, astronomy and astrophysics. The project will run as a pilot for (we hope) more events in the future and is underpinned by high calibre of speakers that is focussed on gender balance and general diversity of speakers. The Unlimied Space Agency has a strong track record of delivering this sort of activity in the field of astronomy and space science and this pilot evolves the expertise into particle, accelerator and more astrophysics. How do we meet the strategy of STFC?Showcasing STFC Science and Technology. The curated (and subsequently podcast) series of gender-positive science conversations with high profile speakers will focus on the core STFC science areas of space, accelerator and particle physics. Both Rob and Jon have a network of contacts to cover all these areas, and the conversations will highlight the achievements of the UK programme. Building the right partnerships. Science in the Space Shed builds a relationship with three large music/arts festivals, with an audience base interested in modern science Developing and supporting STEM influencers. Both Rob and Jon have a strong track record in public engagement, and will be brought together to work as a team though this project.Improving our reach with diverse audiences. The project does not explicitly target diverse audiences but festival audiences will contain a broad cross-section of people. Dr Appleby will use expertise gained as PI of Tactile Collider to respond to VI audience members. Delivering High Quality Public engagement activities and outcomes. The planned programme of science conversations and performances is high quality, with a strong track record on delivering events from the project team.

太空科学棚的目标是：1) 激励儿童、年轻人及其家庭追求 STEM 学科和太空领域的学习和职业，2) 通过性别平衡、鼓舞人心的计划为所有年龄段的女性提供灵感3) 通过将采访内容录制、编辑、出版和推广为播客，为活动创造持久的遗产。我们将通过在夏季的主要音乐节上呈现一系列科学讲座和与科学相关的音乐表演来实现这一目标2018 年，在非正式的环境中为各类节日观众带来易于理解且性别积极的 STFC 科学。太空棚中的科学将前往三个主要的音乐和艺术节，提供科学内容 - Blue Dot（兰开夏郡 Jodrell Bank）、北方大展览（纽卡斯尔）和绿人展览（威尔士布雷肯比肯斯）的大博物馆 - 提供对话、互动活动和受科学启发的音乐节目，主题为粒子物理学、加速器物理学、天文学和天体物理学。该项目将作为（我们希望）未来更多活动的试点，并得到高素质演讲者的支持，重点关注性别平衡和演讲者的总体多样性。无限航天局在天文学和空间科学领域开展此类活动方面拥有良好的记录，而这位飞行员将专业知识发展到粒子、加速器和更多天体物理学领域。我们如何实现STFC的战略？展示STFC科技。与知名演讲者策划的一系列性别积极科学对话（以及随后的播客）将重点关注 STFC 的核心科学领域，即空间、加速器和粒子物理学。罗布和乔恩都有一个涵盖所有这些领域的联系网络，对话将突出英国项目的成就。建立正确的伙伴关系。 Science in the Space Shed 与三个大型音乐/艺术节建立了关系，拥有对现代科学感兴趣的观众群，培养和支持 STEM 影响者。罗布和乔恩在公众参与方面都有着良好的记录，他们将通过这个项目聚集在一起作为一个团队工作。提高我们对不同受众的影响力。该项目没有明确针对不同的观众，但节日观众将包含广泛的人群。 Appleby 博士将利用作为 Tactile Collider 的 PI 获得的专业知识来回应 VI 观众。提供高质量的公众参与活动和成果。计划的科学对话和表演节目质量很高，项目团队在举办活动方面有着良好的记录。
