![]() The Outpost |
The Outpost is what happens when a comic con meets a science fair and sets up shop at the intersection of popular culture and science literacy. The Outpost is a dedicated point in spacetime where concepts in science, tech, and the arts commingle, incubate, and spark something new. A convention for curiosity seekers, entertainers, artists, scientists, educators and fans, The Outpost is where we go to talk about the world we live in and the world we'll be living in next.
