This week we chat to Rebecca Buttigieg about her work at Esplora Interactive Science Centre in Malta. Rather than education, the centre focuses on inspiring audiences to love science through fun, engaging exhibits and activities. Rebecca talks us through some of those, as well as what the centre has been doing during lockdown and how she's been coping with her work while single-handedly looking after her two children! Later she gives us a performance of her original song: The Science Communicators Lament.
