Armagh Planetarium

Today I visited Armagh Planetarium and I had lots of fun :) I hope you enjoy reading about my adventure.

When we arrived Bunny got a cup of coffee and I had a milky way bar :) First photo of today's adventure is of me eating the chocolate bar while looking outside at the rain.  I LOVE watching the rain.

Then I went to make a rocket! :) Bunny helped me. Here are photos of the different stages.




I got sticky tape on my nose when I was trying to put the cone onto the rocket! It did make everyone laugh.


After we put some water in the rocket a kind lady held me and the rocket so Bunny could take a photograph.

I then got to launch the rocket! It went over the hill :)  Bunny got wet with the splashback, though I stayed lovely and dry.

Then, I played laserquest! This is me coming out of the laserquest tunnel.  I was tired after running around but it was fun :)

Next, we went inside the planetarium.  This is a replica of one of the real rockets that went into space along with badges that the spacemen wore when they went into space. 

There was a film crew in the planetarium.  The cameraman let me have a go! :) Here is a photograph of me with the headphones on and operating the camera.

 I took a selfie, looking down at some of the exhibition on the ground floor.

Another selfie, looking at meteorites in a box.

They have a BIG meteorite on display, it weighs 22 stone! Here is a photograph of me climbing it :)


Another selfie taken before we left. I put on 3D glasses and looked at a 3D wall which was an image of the landscape on Mars.

 I made an announcement over the loudspeaker before we left!

We also went to see a show and I got a free ticket! I had lots of fun today and I hope that I can go back to Armagh Planetarium soon.
