Despite these shaky foundations, the building is home to a massive planetarium that allows the presenter to take you on a massive tour of the solar system and beyond. "Let's take a look at Saturn," he says, and planets and moons whiz by at alarming speeds. Jacob, for some reason, spent the whole time going "I don't believe that. That's not right." So obviously my views are successfully rubbing off on someone.
We toured the exhibition too, and got to touch some moon rock (Jacob didn't believe it had come from the Moon). We also saw a presentation on life in space. I wanted to be an astronaut, but having watched one washing her weightless hair with no-rinse shampoo, and learning that a camera is placed at the bottom of the toilet to help with aim, I decided it's safer to remain grounded.
Space cadets.
Thinking? Questioning? Something children should not do to their parents.
Hannah, Pete, and a spaceman.
Bethany learns about eating in space, where everything has to be attached to you. Convenient.
Rebecca all aglow.
And then the alien burst out of the spacesuit..
Moon rock (possibly).
Even if Pete goes into space, Mummy will be there to look after him.
Scott tries to dock with the International Space Station. Billions of dollars of damage result.
The girls conduct more experiments.
As does Pete.
Completely silent? I've changed my mind - send me to space.
