On 17 August 2023, Street Cosmos was launched at Blackhall Community Centre. As Blackhall was a founding partner of Street Museum, it will act as “Mission Control” for Street Cosmos, and a test bed for the programme.
Blackhall Space Day was a free event, that welcomed over 70 local children and their parents / carers to:
- have fun with space
- meet experts from Durham University,
- join in cosmos-themed art workshops
- stargaze in an inflatable planetarium
- simulate their own universes
- and ask an alien about life on their planet!
