the space museum

When we were in Leicester we went to the space museum! The main part looked like a hi-tech beehive! When you came in the first thing you saw was a reconstructed Russian space probe which was really cool.But before we did anything we had lunch. Under a rocket called Thor, which was next to an old British missile.(Which ,incidentally, has a shell thinner than that of a fizzy drinks can .) Then we went to the Darwin exhibition which had lots of cool stuff about evolution. It also had arcade machines which had evolution games on them(such as evolve your own plant.)Then we went into the actual museum. There was all sorts of cool things there, from how ancient people thought the universe began to an actual chunk of moon rock! My favorite thing there was the asteroid game in which you picked an asteroid and hurled it at the earth and observed the consequences ! I had a brilliant time so here are the pictures!
