Highlights
Embark on a captivating journey through the mysteries of the cosmos with the
observatory tours at the Gravity Discovery Centre. Nestled under dark,
pristine skies, the Gravity Discovery Centre & Observatory offers an
unparalleled opportunity to explore the wonders of the universe. Guided by
seasoned astronomers, visitors are treated to a mesmerizing tour of celestial
bodies, distant galaxies, and cosmic phenomena. Our 5 large telescopes unveil
the secrets of the night sky, while engaging explanations demystify complex
astronomical concepts. Whether you're a seasoned stargazer or new to the
wonders of space, the observatory tours at the Gravity Discovery Centre
promise an unforgettable adventure that expands horizons and ignites a passion
for the infinite realm above. The tour includes a 30 minute presentation, a
laser tour to showcase constellations, followed by stargazing.
Stargazing visits are held regardless of the weather. If viewing through the
telescopes is not possible, due to inclement weather, a fun and informative
session will be held in the GDC Theatre and a cloudy night pass will be issued
(free return).
Additional information
This ticket also includes entry to the Gravity Discovery Centre on the day of
the tour. You are welcome to arrive as early as you like on the day and
explore our indoor galleries. Please keep in mind that if you would like to do
the outdoor activities such as the tower climb and the solar system walk,
these need to be done before dark. Don't forget to bring a warm jacket during
the winter months as it can get really cold inside the observatory.
If you would like to order food from the café pre-orders are preferred. The
café closes 30 minutes before the start of the tour to allow everyone enough
time to finish their meal. If you have ordered food please let reception know
