The Royal Society is a serious, working academic institution and, as nice as everyone was, I did feel like I wasn’t really supposed to be visiting.

The only other person in the exhibition space was doing a TV interview on their laptop. 😬

During the summer they open up with family friendly science exhibitions which are really the events that most people visit for.
