WELCOME

Welcome to the National Space Centre, the UK’s largest space visitor attraction.

Voted large visitor attraction of the year, upon arrival you will understand why this really is a visit that is out of this world. 



Journey through the six hands-on galleries and  sit back in awe in the UK's largest planetarium, the Sir Patrick Moore Planetarium, as we take you on a voyage of discovery in the 360° fulldome experience. 


 
Challenge yourself in over 150 interactive experiences and travel through three floors in the glass lifts in the 42m high Rocket Tower.

Whatever the weather, enjoy a day of breathtaking discovery and interactive fun for all the family.
