Children in year 5 said they learned a lot of interesting facts. One child said: ”Space is really interesting because you don’t know how long it is and how wide it is.”
Another said: “We learnt that if Jupiter gets any bigger it will become a star.”
Teachers say the visit has inspired all the children to find out more about space.
