Science Events in Launceston

Join us in the Launceston Planetarium for our next screening of Cosmix. Discover what spaceflight is like and learn how to prepare for it in Cosmix, our newest short-length Planetarium show screening specially for families in the school holidays. What are the challenges of living and working on the International Space Station? Find out what it's like sleeping in space, preparing food and washing yourself. And using the space toilet - how does that work? No sooner are you settled in and feeling at home in space, when it's time to return to Earth. Buckle up for a hair-raising fall through the atmosphere in a red-hot space capsule! Perfect for curious minds, shorter attention spans, or those wanting a taste of the Planetarium experience, this playful journey offers an engaging introduction to the cosmos. This session also includes an extended guided tour of the night sky, making it a fun and memorable experience for all ages.
