In the Night Sky (Children)

Take a trip through the night sky and learn about stars, constellations, and dark skies. We discuss the importance of our ancestors and how they used the stars to tell stories and to navigate. We hear some of those stories and then go out and hopefully observe the stars for ourselves.

"We arranged for Space Detectives to visit our son’s school and show the amazing VR experience to the Year 1 and 2 students. I asked my son if the class enjoyed the sessions, he told me they LOVED IT and then start telling me lots of amazing spaces facts! Great experience and highly recommended"
