Space School UK is a 6 or 8 day residential summer Space School hosted by the University of Leicester.  Supported by EADS Astrium and BNSC, the week includes lectures and workshops by some of the world's leading Space Scientists. There is also a chance to build and launch high-speed rockets, as well as to take part in telescope observing sessions, simulated space missions, SCUBA diving team building exercises, and visiting the laboratories where Europe's ExoMars rover is being built.
