A truly unique science learning destination.

Set within the historic domes of the former Royal Observatory and surrounded by beautiful Sussex countryside, our secure site offers an inspirational setting for exploring science and astronomy in a real-life context.

School and group visits include admission to our indoor galleries and outdoor Discovery Park, and you may also ‘add on’ one or more of our exciting, curriculum-linked educational sessions, including Science Shows, Workshops, Team Challenges and Telescope Tours.

We look forward to welcoming you soon!
