What is TEDx?

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized

Great talk. Young people today need to be inspired like this. Whether or not you agree we need more astronauts, you cannot deny that we need more young people to be inspired to study and work in the sciences.

He said today in The Guardian that England was the third space power at the start of the space adventure, taking as an example the invention of the fuel cell used by the Appolo mission ... and that now thanks to the Brexit they will be able to resume the race to space. I wonder now that Brexit was yesterday, what will be the next scapegoat to explain to the English that all their failures are not just their fault ...
Mr. Zahaan you need to check your sources. The only English launch dates back to 1971 when your French neighbors, for example, who were probably not the third, launched their first space probe Véronique in 1961
