Lunar Landers – Outreach

In this interactive workshop in our mobile planetarium, young people can board the spaceship Selene on a mission to explore the Moon and find the best place to build a lunar base.  

Students experience being part of the spaceship’s crew and face a series of STEM challenges during their mission which they’ll use teamwork and perseverance to overcome. 

Lunar Landers was developed as part of the Space Explorers programme with support from the UK Space Agency and the Edina Trust. 

To help our team deliver the Lunar Landers workshop safely at your school, please check that the following can be provided:

A large indoor space – such as a school hall or sports hall – to house the mobile planetarium.

• The space should be at least 7 m × 7 m and 5 m high, with no obstructions such as projectors or theatre lights.

• It should be accessible via a ramp or on ground level from the parking location, with no steps.

• Access to a plug socket within the space.

Off-street parking – in the school car park, on level, even ground for safe loading and unloading.
