Description

Have you ever wondered about gravity? What is this invisible force that stops us from flying off into space as our planet rotates? How does the Moon stay in orbit around Earth? Why is the gravity of a black hole so strong? Join us for answers to these questions and more in our special Gravity (and Wonder) event in association with the Penrith Regional Gallery & The Lewers Bequest. Program includes presentation, 3D movie, tour of the 0.6m telescope/dome area and telescope viewing (weather permitting)
