Science on Tap to examine the physics portrayed in movies such as ‘Apollo 13’
When Austin Peay State University’s Science on Tap returns to Strawberry Alley Ale Works on May 3rd, APSU professors will continue their examination of how Hollywood blockbuster movies portray science.

“I’m going to talk about a variety of movies, including ‘Apollo 13,’ and how the basic physics is either right or wrong,” said King, chair of the Department of Physics, Engineering and Astronomy.
King’s presentation – “The Science of Space in the Movies” – will start on Tuesday, May 3rd at 5:30pm in the Upstairs at Strawberry Alley.
