The 2026 talks run 15 minutes each with time for questions, on topics including Rocket Science 101, the science of the northern lights, exploring distant worlds, fast-charging batteries and cosmic collisions at the hearts of galaxies. Talks held in Young Hall CS50 are livestreamed from noon to 5 p.m. on the event's official YouTube channel.
The festival opens with the presentation of the 2026 Science and Education Pioneer Award. UCLA's Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry announced that this year's recipient is Distinguished Professor Neil Garg. The ceremony takes place at noon in Young Hall CS50 and will be livestreamed, and Garg gives a family-friendly lecture, Organic Chemistry in the Movies, at 3 p.m. in Young Hall CS76.
