Brilliant day out there is lots of interactive things to do as well theres even a real rocket ship there is also an interactive show on which is always worth watching!
All the exhibitions and being able to freely move around with children, no up and down stairs, no waiting times and the planetarium is amazing.

An amazing day out for all the family but here are my tips: Buy tickets in advance for school holidays, upgrade to the FREE Annual Pass by signing Giftaid form and see a planetarium show (STUNNING!)
Great day out for kids of all ages. 'We Are All Stars' show in planetarium is a superb spectacle.
The 'We are aliens' show in the planetarium is FANTASTIC! I want to go again!

Hell, they should close it to the public when there are that Many schools there as it was completely impossible to look around.
