Hay Festival is back in-person for its 35th spring edition, bringing writers and readers together for inspiring conversations, debates, workshops and performances 26 May–5 June 2022. He talks to geneticist Professor Veronica van Heyningen FRS.

Adam Rutherford’s Control tells the story of attempts by the powerful throughout history to dictate and dominate reproduction and regulate the interface of breeding and society. It was a cornerstone of the policies of the Third Reich and led directly to the gates of Auschwitz. In the Victorian era, in the shadow of Darwin’s ideas about evolution, a new full-blooded attempt to impose control over unruly biology developed and was enshrined in a political movement that bastardised science: eugenics. But this goes hand-in-hand with the urge to impose control over who can procreate and ultimately who is permitted to live. People have always sought to reduce suffering, eliminate disease or enhance desirable qualities in their children. Imagine.Science: Control - the dark history and troubling present of eugenicsĭr Adam Rutherford talks to Professor Veronica van Heyningen FRS Each year, the winner is selected by judging panels made up of thousands of young people at schools across the country.

The United Kingdom’s Astronomer Royal, Martin Rees was previously Professor of Astronomy and Director of the Institute of Astronomy at the University of Cambridge.

As our robot explorers grow more competent, governments and corporations must ask, does our desire to send astronauts to the Moon and Mars justify the cost and danger? Lord Martin Rees FRS believes that beyond low-Earth orbit, space exploration should proceed without humans. But the thrill of space travel for astronauts comes at enormous expense and is fraught with peril. Human journeys into space fill us with wonder.
