Think space is all black holes sucking everything up and moon cheese legends? Think again.
In this chill myth-busting series, we’ll break down the biggest space misconceptions you’ve seen in memes, movies, and your textbooks 👀 From black holes to booms in space, you’ll leave each session knowing the facts and how to roast the fakes. Bring your curiosity and your sense of humor — we’re debunking the universe, one myth at a time.
No prior experience is needed to attend the sessions! Feel free to join :)
