Coming up in this months episode we’ll take you to a couple of our recent sessions up at the observatory, but both with very different themes. First was our space kids event which is one of our most popular daily events which take place in the daytime, ending with youngsters building and launching their own rockets! And then it was the turn of another of our most sought after evenings, the Aurora Night, where you can learn about the aurora phenomenon, and discover how to see it for yourself. We’re also talking cosmology in this month’s episode too, with Dr Sam James who is the chair of the NE Branch of the Institute of Physics, finding out why we can still see the remnants of the big bang, and why the universe could be moving!

The official monthly podcast from Kielder Observatory in Northumberland UK, situated under some of the darkest skies in the world.

If you've ever wondered what happens when you fall into a black hole, if intelligent life is watching us from other galaxies, or how the North East is at the forefront of the British Space programme, then you can find out more in this series!


Each month we also update you on the things to look out for in the night sky wherever you are, and of course update you on what's happening at the observatory too!
