Brace yourself for an out-of-this world collision of science fiction and science fact, as we throw open the doors of the National Museum of Scotland after hours.
Immerse yourself in our Spaceship Earth exhibition, exploring the challenge of living on a planet with finite resources and questioning how we might live better on Earth.
At this adults-only event, ask what it’s really like living on the International Space Station when you meet Turkish astronaut Alper Gezeravcı. Marvel at new works in the Spaceship Earth costume show from the Edinburgh College of Art. Enjoy the event with a drink from the bar, soundtracked by DJ Nikki Kent, or try your hand at stardom in the National Museum of Scotland’s Intergalactic Karaoke.
