Soton Astrodome

About Soton Astrodome

This academic year (2019 /2020) we are doing a strategic program focusing on our Aurora research with year 8 students at 4 local schools. We will also be running several #SotonAstroArt exhibits in Southampton and Poole.

Soton Astrodome Description

The planetarium shows consists of both guided tours of the constellations and current astronomy events which can be seen in the nightsky above England. We also offer an award-winning show called 'We are Astronomers' which features the voice of David Tennant (Dr Who).

The astrodome school visits are run by Astronomer Dr Sadie Jones and a team of Postgraduate and Undergraduate Astronomy students based at University of Southampton.

Tried to introduce the Young People at the YMCA to #astrophotography yesterday but as usual in UK it was raining and cloudy. However, they did attempt to photograph Christmas Stars in the youth center. #outreach #publicengagement @ YMCA Fairthorne Group

I put the refracting telescope in my car earlier to take to the Youth Club tonight. That was optimistic. 🌧️πŸŒͺ️🌬️🌧️I put the refracting telescope in my car earlier to take to the Youth Club tonight. That was optimistic. 🌧️πŸŒͺ️🌬️🌧️
