We are excited to bring you our BRAND-NEW presenter-led show, Under Pressure: The Ocean Show, come with us as we take a deep dive into the global ocean; we'll explore dark, hidden ecosystems and see the collective efforts of hundreds of marine scientists and engineers, striving to learn all we can about these enigmatic worlds! We will also be showing You Are Here in a special 50-minute edition, plus, Planets 360 a re-imagining of British composer Gustav Holst's The Planets orchestral suite! Our bar will be open throughout the night so you can sit back, relax, and experience these shows like never before!
You Are Here
6pm (50 minutes)
Come with us on a dramatic journey to the very edge of our solar system and back. In real-time we'll be seeing the boundaries of human exploration and following in the footsteps of some very special space missions. Our space-cruise is a chance for some cosmic perspective in this topsy-turvy time and also a handy wee reminder that: You. Are. Here. There will be time to chat with our resident astronomers after the show too!
