To infinity and beyond

“Galaxies are so bright, if you look quickly you may, accidentally, think it was simply a star.’ The Astronomer from The Planetarium.

On Thursday 6th December 63 Year 10 students went on a trip to the Planetarium. The students had a fantastic time learning about Maths in the solar system. I found the above quote so beautiful, especially as it relates to the light inside our students that is not to be overlooked. Students asked questions such as, “Is there anything bigger than a supernova?” and “How did the big bang create this?” which left even the lecturer pondering. One student said, “This was the best school trip I could have hoped for.” Another said, “This was by far my favourite school day, ever.”
