Weather Forecast
Don't let the weather put you off; The Centre has plenty to offer no matter what the weather.
Please be aware that our glass fronted building is very hard to heat and we advise all visitors to wear appropriate clothing and footwear. There is no heating in the telescope domes and the temperature can drop rapidly - especially if you visit during an open evening.
Check the latest forecast to help you decide whether to bring sun cream or an umbrella.
