The Roberson Museum is hosting the Third Annual RoberCon Sci-Fi Convention in Binghamton this weekend. The convention will have events and panels on both Saturday and Sunday.

One of this year's guests of honor is actress Chase Masterson, who portrayed Leeta on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. She has also done voice work for the Doctor Who audio adventures. The second guest of honor is author Alex Bledsoe, most famous for his Eddie Lacrosse series. Both of them will be signing autographs in the mansion throughout the weekend during the convention.

Panels are set to talk about many different science fiction television shows and movie franchises from Doctor Who, Star Wars, Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, the Twilight Zone and others, as well as discussions on topics such as "No Capes!: The Anatomy of Superhero Costumes" and "Beyond Ghosts and Werewolves: Crossing the Boundaries of Horror". There will be quite a few different planetarium shows about Star Trek and more science-applied shows about the universe and whether or not there is life on other planets. You can see the full schedule of events here.

Also worth noting is that Ecto-1, the vehicle from the movie series Ghostbusters, will be at the convention for you to take your photo with!

Badges for the event can be purchased on the Roberson Museum's website. I hope to see you there!
