Royal Albert Hall, Kensington Gore, Chelsea, SW7 2AP

A week-long festival of all things space-related at the Royal Albert Hall this October.

With art events, an exhibition, film screenings, tours, family fun events, and planetarium things, this is a big old blend of art, science, education and assorted other cool stuff.

Much of it is free, although a lot of the events and screenings and things are individually priced - but with nothing more than £14 it's all pretty good value, we reckon.

Take your protein pills and put your helmet on...

25-31.10.10.
