This summer, step into a tapestry of scientific discoveries and explore the cosmic threads that tie us together in this exciting new exhibition in collaboration with the Royal Astronomical Society.
We are delighted to open our doors to the extraordinary RAS Bicentennial Quilt and in a historic first, the quilt will be displayed alongside its companion piece for the very first time: a homage to astronomer Ellen Baker’s 1876 Solar System quilt, which she used as a visual aid when giving astronomy lectures.
The exhibition will also display fascinating pieces from spacewear to a one-of-a-kind parachute dress made from the exact fabric that transported NASA’s Perseverance Rover to Mars.
