Swift Class go to the WonderDome

Swift Class had a wonderful afternoon with Ben in the WonderDome mobile planetarium.

We watched a film which was all about the joint Space Agencies (NASA and the European Space Agency) project to put men (and women) back on the moon. 

   

   

   

We watched footage of the Artemis spacecraft which is currently under construction at the huge NASA building at Cape Kennedy, Florida. 

Next we watched simulations of the launch and subsequent landing on the moon.    

      

We then took a trip through a nebula and watched the birth of a protostar and its development into a supergiant then its explosion.

   

   

The children had a wonderful afternoon and asked lots of insightful questions.
