Book Exploring Space at The Science Museum

An atmospheric space which tells the fascinating story of space exploration, this out-of-this-world gallery is available for evening hire. It is perfect for a drinks reception of up to 300 people, or invite up to 180 guests to dine beneath real rockets.

Exploring Space showcases rockets, satellites, probes and landers. You can find out how the Space Age started with the launch of Sputnik 1 and explore how we’ve sent spacecraft to other planets, walked on the Moon and peered into the heart of our galaxy and beyond.

Your guests can marvel at a full-sized replica of the ‘Eagle’, the lander that took the astronauts Armstrong and Aldrin to the Moon in 1969 and discover how they could live in space with displays of astronaut food and drink.
