We love the Planetarium!

 The girls are on School Holidays and we visited the Planetarium for a fun and educational experience - we took a journey to outer space and enjoyed a full dome movie: Tycho to the Moon.


First up an astronomy educator gave us a guided tour of the solar system, stars and constellations and other interesting objects found in the night sky.


And wow, was it awesome!


Then we watched Tycho to the Moon, a movie produced especially for the kids - shown on the Planetarium 360 degree full digital dome. Tycho is the dog that doesn't just howl at the moon…he goes there. Blast off on an amazing ride with Tycho and his friends, Ruby and Michael on a great adventure in space. We learned about night and day, phases of the moon, space travel and the lunar surface. We saw what it is like to play in zero gravity, watched meteors shoot across the night sky, witnessed earth from space and got a close up look at the sun!!




The visit to the Planetarium was a real hit with the girls! They loved all the exploring and have asked to go back real soon.



Agnes & the moon.

Happy holidays everyone!
