We’re so excited for Look up at the Sky Day! ⁠

We’re so excited for Look up at the Sky Day! ⁠
⁠
From daytime bird watching and cloud shape spotting, to night time star gazing and more – our skies are filled with lots to explore. But sometimes in all the busy-ness we forget to look up!⁠
⁠
So, today is the perfect day to encourage children to stop and observe what’s around them. What can you see together?⁠
⁠
We’ll be heading out with our Build Your Own telescope this evening for a spot of moon gazing 🌔. Snuggly blanket and hot chocolate at the ready!⁠

On 12th April 1961, Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin

On 12th April 1961, Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first person in space, and the first person to orbit the earth! 🌎⁠
⁠
This historic event opened the gateway for human space exploration. Pretty awesome, eh?⁠
⁠
The 12th April has since been declared as ‘International Day of Human Space Flight’ to mark the beginning of the space era for mankind.⁠
⁠
To infinity and beyond! 🚀⁠
