North Down

To finish off our epic UK tour, we brought the solar system to North Down beginning in the Ulster Transport Museum, taking in the cosmic coastal path and finishing with Pluto on the pier in Bangor.


Inner Planets at Ulster Transport Museum

The first stretch of the solar system — from super Sun to mighty Mars — enjoyed a stellar stay at the Ulster Transport Museum from March 2023 to December 2024.

Now, they've packed up their cosmic bags and headed home! So instead of hunting for planets on Earth, why not tilt your gaze to the stars and see if you can spot them sparkling in the night sky?
