Christmas holidays at Space Expo

Mysterious Meteorites & Boiling Comets Show

Space is filled with all sorts of things: chunks of rock, metal and even ice. These objects come in all shapes and sizes - from tiny to gigantic and from far away to surprisingly close! During our "Mysterious Meteorites & Boiling Comets" show, our enthusiastic guides will tell you everything you need to know. We’ll wrap up the show with a spectacular demonstration: we’ll create a "boiling" comet live using dry ice. You really don't want to miss this!
