Chasing the Moon - Planetarium Show & Stargazing Q&A
Multiple dates and times
The Millbridge Hall, KY13 8DW
Description
Come stargazing with Aero Space Kinross in our Cosmos Planetarium and see the night sky as it will appear this National Astronomy Week.
Join Cosmos Planetarium as we chase the Moon across the sky past three planets and a treasure-trove of stars. Along the way you’ll find your place in the solar system, discover a nursery of baby stars born in the time of the dinosaurs, and learn how to test the darkness of your night sky. All you need do is look up!
After your time in our immersive planetarium you will have the chance to enjoy some stargazing. This will include a laser-guided tour of the constellations and observing planets and deep sky objects with our telescopes and binoculars.
IN THE EVENT OF CLOUDY SKIES we will host an indoor session including hands on space-themed activities such as VR-Headsets (scale of the universe), spacesuit dress-up and a chance to see our collection of real meteorites.
Tickets include:
- A 45-minute presenter-led planetarium show
- A further 45-minutes informal Q&A session with our Astronomers. (Indoors or outdoors depending on the weather)
