Is there life beyond Earth? That’s what Neil deGrasse Tyson wants to explore when he lands in Winnipeg this winter.

The acclaimed astrophysicist is set to host a talk on Dec. 5 at the Centennial Concert Hall. According to an advisory, the event—titled ‘The Search for Life in the Universe’—will explore the biggest question in the cosmos.

“Dr. Tyson blends cutting-edge science with his trademark humour and clarity, offering a deep dive into the search for habitable worlds, the possibility of intelligent life, and what it all means for humanity,” the advisory reads.

Presale tickets will be available at noon on Wednesday, while general tickets will be available at noon on Thursday. Tickets are available at the Centennial Concert Hall website.
