We will run our Northern Lights and Stars show which is suitable for adults and children to show the planet positions and the main winter constellations to spot. We end the session with a travel through our 3D solar system view going to Mars and landing on its surface. Seeing the real Mars landscapes and see data from the new Perseverance Rover, the NASA mission that landed in mid-February. As we travel around Mars and the Moon our special planetarium will show real terrain of the surfaces from data files. It is an amazing  real view of the planets. Our next view will be travelling outside our Solar System to look at our Milky Way and then a data model of the other galaxies and the background radiation of the Universe.
