The Moon is our nearest neighbour. Even with the naked eye, you can see bright regions and darker patches on the Moon. Use binoculars or a telescope and you will see a tremendous amount of detail. The large, dark plains are called 'seas', but there has never been any water in them.
Explore the Moon with us at the Planetarium - it's a rugged little world, with mountains, valleys, and a vast number of circular walled structures called craters. Learn about the phases of the Moon, how it raises the ocean tides, how it regulates Earth's climate, and how it is slowly making our day longer.
Find out also what happens when there is an eclipse of the Moon. There will be a lovely total eclipse of the Moon on the evening of Wednesday, 15th JUne.
The eclipse will first become visible at moonrise, around 9:10 pm BST in southern England, with totality ending at 10:03pm and the partial phase at 11.02pm. The Moon will be rather low in the south-eastern sky when it is totally eclipsed.
