The story

What happens in the show

  1. 01

    Launch

    Count down with the whole dome, then lift off from a launch pad drawn from real rockets.

  2. 02

    Through the rings

    Each ring is made of billions of pieces of ice, some as small as sugar and some as big as a bus.

  3. 03

    Landing on Titan

    Thick orange haze, hills of ice, and methane lakes. We imagine what it would feel like to stand there.

Questions about Ring world

Will my child be scared?

The lights dim slowly and the presenter talks the whole way through. If anyone needs a break, the exit is lit in soft red and staff will help.

Is it the same every time?

The story is the same, but every audience asks different questions, so no two shows end the same way.

Can schools book it?

Yes. It links to the Basic Science and Physics curriculum, and teachers get a free worksheet pack.
