This threefold tour offers an unusual and carefully arranged experience that links astronomy, models and storytelling. As you move through the three parts, you will encounter astronomy concepts presented alongside physical models that help make abstract ideas more tangible. Along the way, many of the stories draw on those concepts and explore connections between aspects of our modern culture and the ancient past.
The tour represents the culmination of a lifetime of seeking adventure and of trying to answer big questions. You will be led through ideas and narratives that may reveal hidden threads tying present-day life to earlier times. The emphasis is on explanation and reflection rather than spectacle, so you should expect thoughtful interpretation supported by visual aids and narrative context. Thank you for your interest in this experience.
