ASTRONOMY FESTIVAL 2010
Come and soak up the incredible atmosphere at the Annual Astronomy Festival over the weekend of the 3rd, 4th & 5th September. The Science Centre is open as usual but with the added bonus of all the extra day time and evening activities that the festival weekend has to offer.
Camp under the backdrop of the domes, look through the historic telescopes on the evenings of the 3rd & 4th (weather permitting), enjoy lectures, trade stalls, planetarium shows, family activities, including launching water rockets and much more. See the festivals page in the astronomy section for further details.
