Planetarium Show – October half term

Visit Catalyst between 25th and 29th October for a chance to see this immersive family show

at 12.00 noon or 3.00pm

Join us in our new inflatable planetarium for an exciting journey into space. Learn how to identify constellations and see how the stars appear to travel in the night sky before going on an epic ride in the hunt for alien life. Our show called ‘We are Aliens’, narrated by Rupert Grint, explores how our understanding of life on Earth guides the hunt for alien life!

Tickets for the show cost £1.75 per person in addition to the normal admission price but they are limited and can be booked on the website.
