April
321 LIFTOFF! (G)
4:30 TO 5:30PM | Saturday 6, 13, 20 AND 27 April | Planetarium
Elon is a hamster scientist who lives in a rubbish tip. He tries to fit in with the local rat community but nobody takes him seriously. The rats aren’t interested in his scientific experiments which often fail in practice.
One day Elon hears a crash. In his garden, he finds a crater and a damaged robot inside. How did he get here? Elon fixes the robot and finds out that he fell from a spaceship which is going to prepare Mars for colonisation. But the ship leaves in three days. Will Elon manage to get the robot back to his ship before it leaves with all the robot’s friends?
May
Dinosaurs – A Story of Survival (G)
4:30 TO 5:30PM Saturday 4, 11, 18 AND 25 May | Planetarium
Like children everywhere, Celeste is fascinated with dinosaurs. She is preparing a talk for her class about how they went extinct when Moon, a very wise a magical character, poses a tantalising question: what if I told you that there are still dinosaurs among us?
Celeste will join Moon on a journey through time and an adventure that will show them the Earth as it was in the distant past. They will see the fascinating transformations that these animals underwent over millions of years, creating giant creatures, armoured beasts, and super predators, until the day that a cataclysmic impact event caused a mass extinction on Earth. But all is not lost. Celeste will discover the key to their survival.
June
The Life of Trees (G)
4:30 to 5:30PM Saturday 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 June | Planetarium
Experience nature from a bug eye’s perspective. Join two quirky insects, a ladybug called Dolores and a firefly called Mike, on an exciting journey of discovery as they learn about the wonderous processes that happen inside a tree.
How do trees grow? How do they transport water against gravity to the top of the crown? How do green plants produce oxygen to make life on earth possible?
The Life of Trees is a perfect planetarium show for the whole family that raises awareness of protecting the natural world we live in.
