Join us for a family-friendly evening learning about the universe. Explore the wonders of the winter night sky. Our astronomy experts will take you on a whistle stop tour of the universe on the big screen. You will learn some fun facts about stars, planets and galaxies.
Then, weather permitting, we will head outside and get hands-on using telescopes and binoculars to go in search of sparkling star clusters, distant galaxies and some giant planets.
The content of this evening is family-orientated and suitable for adults with children of all ages.
Please note if the weather is poor or cloudy the event will still go ahead. Our astronomers will instead take more time to take you on a virtual tour of the universe on the screen!
