This is a rare opportunity to hear how the creative team behind Star Voyager brought the extraordinary exhibition to life.

Paul Minifie, one of the key designers, will discuss how he took inspiration from both factual and fictional representations of space on screen, and how the exhibition design references recurrent film spacecraft design features such as circular rooms and corridors.

Australian artist Peter Hennessey will talk about his involvement with the exhibition and the incredible life-size wooden sculptures of spacecraft he has created.

ACMI's Exhibitions Manager, Chris Harris, will showcase some of the remarkable works and artifacts from the exhibition, explaining how this exciting exhibition was developed in Melbourne.
