The Observatory Science Centre

Classification Guided Tour, Other

DescriptionA visit to The Observatory Science Centre is ideal for a coach outing. Set in rural surroundings, the Centre offers the chance to relax while touring the former home of The Royal Greenwich Observatory.

On a telescope tour you can see large telescopes, find out how they are used and what we can learn from them, and see their principles demonstrated.

Depending on weather conditions the tour may also provide opportunities to look though a small telescope, or to hear about recent astronomical discoveries.
