Centre Director, Professor Jonathan Roberts, spoke with Sirine Demachkie on Weekend Evenings on ABC Radio about the influence of Star Wars.
Jonathan is an expert on Star Wars, which he first saw after queueing around the block for tickets with his brother and parents to see the original film in 1977. He has maintained an active interest in all things Star Wars, especially droids, since that time.
Listen below and read his article in The Conversation – Star Wars turns 40 and it still inspires our real life space junkies (theconversation.com). Note- this article is 5 years old but still very relevant!
