这一建议有两个主要目的:在埃弗顿体育场(古迪逊公园),与利物浦足球俱乐部一起研究路线图挑战“生命是我们星球上独一无二的吗?”b.开发一种有效的方法,吸引人们参加像足球比赛这样的活动,讨论STFC科学中的重大问题。具体来说,我们的目标是让在埃弗顿主场古迪逊公园(Goodison Park)观看足球比赛的观众们提出这样的问题:“宇宙中其他地方有生命吗?”以及“地球上的生命是否来自外太空?”这项活动将与海伦·弗雷泽博士研究尘埃云中冰表面复杂分子形成的研究项目和乌尔里希·科尔布博士研究系外行星的研究项目联系起来,并将由卡伦·奥尔森-弗朗西斯博士研究太空中微生物生存的研究项目和查尔斯·科克尔教授(爱丁堡)研究极端环境中生命的生物特征的研究项目提供信息。埃弗顿自诩在许多足球创新方面是第一个——它的一个网站被称为“科学学院”。它对成为联盟中第一个与领先的STFC科学接触的人群的可能性充满热情。我们预计人群将达到38,000人,其中包括许多有孩子和退休老人的家庭。观众主要来自利物浦,超过25,000名季票持有者居住在距离球场30英里的交通便利范围内。埃弗顿球迷的平均收入是英超最低的,71%的球迷年收入低于3万英镑。来自两个最低社会阶层的季票持有者比例也是最高的。我们获悉,他们是利物浦人口在年龄和职业方面的一个完整的横截面。总体影响:我们预计会对利物浦人民产生重大影响。我们希望用我们正在做的事情和科学问题来激励利物浦,在此之前,我们会通过媒体和当地电台来宣传这一事件。我们的目标是让很大一部分人参与到STFC研究人员所接受的关键问题中来,包括使用布拉德福德大学、利物浦约翰摩尔大学和开放大学的机器人望远镜获得他们自己的相关图像。将有一个论坛来分享对这些问题的想法和反思,机器人望远镜将供学校继续他们对天文学的兴趣。评估也将旨在发展案例,以供其他足球俱乐部效仿埃弗顿并举办类似的活动。该计划的设计将涉及埃弗顿足球俱乐部的专家如何与他们的观众互动,利物浦现场的专家以及如何最好地与利物浦公众互动,以及从事stfc资助研究的研究科学家。该项目基于网络,可通过智能手机访问,并将提供有关每个参与者的人数和参与程度的详细反馈。将在评价中进一步咨询帮助设计方案的专家,以了解如何进一步改进方案。
英文摘要
This proposal has two chief aims:a. Inspiring, informing and involving a Liverpool Football crowd at the Everton stadium (Goodison Park) with STFC research into the Roadmap Challenge "Is life unique to our planet". b. Developing an effective method of engaging crowds of people attending an event like a football match with the big questions in STFC science. Specifically, we aim to engage the crowd attending a football match at Goodison Park, the Everton home ground, with the questions "Is there life elsewhere in the Universe?" and "Could life on Earth come from outer space?" The activity will link to the research programmes of Dr Helen Fraser into the formation of complex molecules on the surface of ices in dust clouds and of Dr Ulrich Kolb into exoplanets, and will be informed by Dr Karen Olsson-Francis' (OU) work into the survival of micro-organisms in space, and Professor Charles Cockell's (Edinburgh) work into the bio-signatures of life in extreme environments.Everton boasts being the first in many football innovations - one of its web sites is called School of Science. It is enthusiastic about the possibility of being the first in the League to engage its crowd with leading edge STFC science. We expect the crowd to be about 38,000 people, this includes many families with children and OAP's. The crowd is mainly Liverpool based with over 25,000 of their season ticket holders living within easy traveling distance (30 miles) of the ground. The Everton fans have the lowest average income in the Premier League with 71% earning under £30,000 per year. It also has the highest fraction of season ticket holders from the two lowest social classifications. We are informed that they are a complete cross-section of the Liverpool population community in age and profession.Overall Impact: We expect a significant impact on the people of Liverpool. We wish to excite Liverpool with what we are doing, and the science issues, beforehand using the press and local radio stations to publicise the event. We aim to engage a significant section of the crowd in following the key questions embraced by STFC researchers including obtaining their own relevant images using Robotic Telescopes at the University of Bradford, Liverpool John Moore's University and Open University. There will be a forum to share thoughts and reflections on the issues, and the robotic telescopes will be available for schools to continue their interest in astronomy. The evaluation will also be aimed at developing the case to put to other football clubs to follow Everton and run similar events. The design of the programme will involve experts from the Everton football club in how to interact with their crowds, experts in the Liverpool scene and how best to interact with the Liverpool public along with research scientists engaged in STFC-funded research. The programme is web based, accessible on smart phones, and will provide detailed feedback on the numbers and the level of involvement of each of the participants. The experts who help to design the programme will be further consulted in the evaluation to see how it can be further improved.
