Helen Keen loves space rockets.

She brings their story to life with a fusion of stand-up comedy and tinfoil in her award-winning show (– soon to launch its 3rd series for BBC Radio 4). Join her joyful exploration of stargazing, space-racing, the boundless possibilities of an infinite universe (and temping…) With Space Nazis! Satanists! And Aeronautical Engineers! It Is Rocket Science! will take you on a whistlestop tour around the Great Brains who put monkeys, ladies, dogs and gentlemen into orbit.

“Informed, enthusiastic and funny” (Daily Mail)

"Packed with gags, silliness and science... a fun, fast-paced, gag-filled show" (Broadway Baby)

Keen hosted the first Comedy Night at the CERN lab in August 2013, the show proved to be CERN's most successful webcast since the discovery of the Higgs boson there, and was followed from 105 countries by nearly 10,000 browsers.[18][19]
