Begin your day exploring historic Knutsford before visiting Jodrell Bank, a UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring the magnificent Grade I listed Lovell Telescope. Standing nearly 90 metres tall, this iconic radio telescope dominates the Cheshire skyline as a symbol of British science and engineering. Experience this giant structure up close and join a Telescope Talk with an Explainer to discover its fascinating history and ground-breaking research. Inside the stunning £21m First Light Pavilion, explore The Story of Jodrell Bank exhibition through interactive displays, projections and artefacts spanning from post-war beginnings through the Space Race to today's world-leading discoveries. Marvel at the beautiful Orrery exploring the universe's origins and black holes, then visit the Space Dome for an optional planetarium show (subject to availability). Refuel at two cafés serving locally sourced food and browse the Planet Gift Shop for space-themed gifts.
Price includes self-guided admission and Telescope Talk. Space Dome Shows not included.
