Join showman extraordinaire “The Great Schiaparelli” as he takes the audience on a death-defying space-time adventure within his wondrous Observatorium.

From the sun-scorched surface of Mercury to the icy expanses of Pluto and beyond, prepare to be subjected to the myriad dangers and wonders of our Solar System, on a breath-taking tour that reveals just how precious our home planet really is.

Be warned though, the Observatorium isn’t just for show. It will transport the audience right to the heart of some of the deadliest locations in our slice of the heavens. It’s going to take some fancy flying to get everyone back in one piece!

Film 2: CAPCOM GO! The Apollo Story - 11:00am & 12:30pm

On July 20th 1969, 600 million people around the world gathered to witness a historic moment of human achievement broadcast live from the Moon. “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” - Neil Armstrong.

The world celebrated as the astronauts took their first steps on the Moon. Yet few people were aware of just how immense an effort it had taken to get them there. The Apollo 11 astronauts were only 2 of nearly 400,000 people who had worked over ten years towards this goal. How exactly did they do it?

Enjoy this immersive, historical documentary that showcases the achievements of the Apollo programme and what it took to put the first human on the Moon.

The film introduces a new generation to the immense challenges of manned Space travel, inspiring them to become the explorers, designers, engineers, thinkers and dreamers of the future. As the Artemis mission prepares to return to the Moon in the next month, what better time to re-live this historic moment.
