The biannual Starmus festival kicks off May 12 with a stellar lineup of guest speakers and performers, including Queen rock legend and festival co-founder Brian May and French composer and performance artist Jean-Michel Jarre.
The festival combines art, music and science to enhance science communication and "engage humanity in the biggest questions of our time," according to Starmus. Each festival edition has a specific theme and includes talks, debates, panel discussions, exhibitions, concerts and film screenings, plus a variety of other events.
