Events Description
What’s the difference between an asteroid and a comet? Join us for a comet-making demonstration and find out more about these cosmic travelers and current missions studying them.
During your 60-minute visit you will have 30 minutes to explore the exhibits in our Cosmic Courtyard Gallery. The other 30 minutes will be spent in our Observatory with a tour of our ½ metre Cassegrain telescope and a 15-minute cooking up a comet demonstration.
