About Cinema Under the Stars: Interstellar
Step into our Thinktank Planetarium for a cinema-style screening. Unwind and enjoy a specially selected space-themed film in a setting designed to inspire curiosity and wonder.
This month's feature: Interstellar
An astronaut becomes stranded on Mars after his team assumes him dead, and must rely on his ingenuity to find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive and can survive until a potential rescue.
Before the screening:
Make sure to explore The Space Vault Exhibition — a new display showcasing one of the UK’s most extensive private collections of human spaceflight artefacts. Highlights include:
Original mission checklists instrumental in the Apollo 13 rescue
Commander Dave Scott’s actual umbilical suit connector
Genuine lunar dust from the Apollo 15 mission
Whether you're a space enthusiast or simply looking for a distinctive night out, this event blends gripping cinema with authentic space history — a must-see for those with a taste for discovery.
