Stargazing at the National Museum of the Royal Navy Hartlepool

We’ve teamed up with Wonder Dome to provide an amazing pop-up planetarium where you can watch the stars in the night sky and find out more about our solar system.

Then make your way on board HMS Trincomalee, explore this historic ship, and take part in object handling activities where you can find out how sailors used the stars to navigate their way across the ocean over 200 years ago.

This exciting experience is happening throughout the day and on Friday evening and is the perfect family activity to start the year off!
