Interesting place to visit, more for the children but even the adults will probably get something out of the trip. Plenty of parking spaces available then a short walk down a slope to the main entrance. Staff were all friendly. Planetarium film show will bring back memories of school or childhood and was great to see. No need to rush around the different displays. There's a cafe with ok drinks and snacks and a gift shop which was a little disappointing but staff were nice, exhibits and displays were interesting, helpful and varied.

A superb attraction. Loads of interesting exhibits and enough facts and info to frazzle your brain cells. Good value and nice friendly staff. I can't recommend this place enough. Kids and adults will have an out of this world day out (pun intended ).

If your into space and love facts then this is the place for you. Great for kids and adults alike. There is so much to see and do it amazing. I personally love the cinema experience and the race into space facts that are both educational and engaging, although that sums up the place. A must visit for any budding astronaut. There are also interactive exhibits and the hotdogs are out of this world lol. Thanks guys for an great day, and what's best is when you get a ticket it's free to return within a year as long as you give a couple of days notice. Oh and parking is easy just make sure you book it when you book your tickets.

Had a great afternoon at the Space Centre. Its an awesome museum. There are lots of artifacts and space memorabilia, from rockets and shuttle pods, to a space toilet and space suit from Martian. It's an even more awesome place if you have children, as there's lots of things for them to play with and mess with. Definitely worth a visit. We booked the the day before and paid for parking too which made parking easy. The staff are friendly and are adhering to social distancing.

Just got home from a fantastic day at NSC, first time I have been, really excellent. The exhibits, interaction and layout are all superbly thought out. The Planetarium show was inspiring and beautifully presented. We only had a snack in the cafe, but again, clean, tidy and good coffee. Given the restrictions and the circumstances under which the venue is working I thought the whole experience was top draw.

Space holds a fascination with most people and this place is really fun and interesting. The Sir Patrick Moore Planetarium was amazing we watched a documentary about CapCom and the Apollo 11 mission. We didn't have time to see everything we wanted to see , I definitely recommend spending the day here. Even the cafe was fun with its shuttle launch every 30 mins or so. The Space Centre is an informative and fascinating place to visit for all ages.

Amazing place for kids, the planetarium show "We Are Astronomers" was breath-taking. A great day out for young and adults alike, lots of interesting exhibits. We went with 2.5 and 4.5 year old boys who found the whole experience very enjoyable with lots for them to see and touch. Cafe was good with a decent range of food, served quickly and reasonably priced too. Felt very safe and not too busy, so fairly easy to social distance. We spent a good 4-5 hours inside, highly recommended.

Very interesting place. Tickets are quite expensive, however, you do get an annual pass from the day to your visit so you can return as many times as you wish. Staff clean interactive stations frequently and hand sanitizer available around the centre. Security measures are being taken and had a great experience. Only recommendation is for the centre to update as technology as space travel had developed lately.
