Join astronomer and QVMAG Senior Planetarium Officer Chris Arkles on a fascinating journey through the stars.
In this live talk series, Chris will explore a wide range of topics exploring the science, stories and surprises of our Universe — from the life cycles of stars and the mysteries of distant galaxies, to the latest discoveries shaping our understanding of space.
With each talk discussing a different celestial subject, this series is sure to inspire and reveal something new every time.
Each Planetarium show is followed by a live tour of the current night sky.
