Meet inspiring and diverse engineers whose ground-breaking work is making a difference and inspiring writers who create compelling fiction.
Engineering is at the heart of being human: for thousands of years we’ve been inventing things, from stone tools through to modern smartphones, We’ve created technology that have made our lives better and have also radically changed society. And yet as a subject Engineering is strangely hidden in plain sight. Inventive explores new ways of telling Engineering's story by mixing fact and fiction. Through this, we inspire our listeners about the contribution engineering makes.

Join us for a brand new series of Inventive Podcast. We're launching in World Space Week - this year, it's all about celebrating Women in Space - so who better to launch our new series than Spacecraft Engineer Sian Cleaver! Sian chats to Trevor Cox about her work on the Orion European Service Module for NASA's Orion spacecraft, built to take humans farther into space than ever before. Being an astronaut or working in a space-related job has always been on Sian's mind. When she was a child, her dream was to have the first baby in space! She's passionate about science and exploration space missions and inspiring the next generation of young women into careers in STEM. Telling Sian's inspirational story in rhyme is the rapping scientist and aeronautical engineer Jon Chase.
