Outside, you’ll have the chance to get up close to real celestial objects using powerful telescopes, guided by friendly science experts who love answering curious questions.
Alongside the stargazing, dive into a range of exciting hands-on space activities designed to spark imagination and discovery — from learning how astronauts live and work, to exploring what makes our universe so extraordinary.
