Design a Telescope
Astronomy is driven forward by always asking new questions. When we get to a question that we can’t answer, it usually means that we don’t have the technology, or the knowledge, to get to the bottom of the problem. This drives technology forward.
Count the Stars!
Interactive Orrery

Cosmic Yoga
Connecting with the natural world through topics like space and astronomy may help improve your mental health and wellbeing.
The Changing Moon
You can use the Liverpool Telescope to observe features on the Moon’s surface. This is because the telescope has a field of view that shows small areas of the sky in lots of detail.
Explore Light
Astronomers use telescopes to see objects far away in space. Did you know that we can only see an object if it emits light or if it reflects light?
