 EXPERIENCE THE UNIVERSE IN 3D

This school holiday period we will be running a 3D AstroTour for the general
public.  The show will feature the 3D movies "Bigger Than Big" and "Extreme
Places", made by our highly talented Swinburne Spaceworks team.

The school holiday sessions will be held on:

2.00pm, Wednesday 22 September
2.00pm, Wednesday 29 September
7.00pm, Thursday 30 September
Each will run for 50 minutes.

AstroTours are held in the Swinburne University Virtual Reality Theatre,
ground floor of the AR building (AR104).  For a map and directions to the
theatre, see:

http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/outreach/?topic=directions


The sessions are tailored for the general public and children aged 6+ should
enjoy the movies and interactive presentations.

NB: The policy for Astro tours is that the minimum age is 6 years old and
from an OH&S issue no prams/strollers are allowed in the theatre. A 5 yr old
could come but only if there is a 6 year old or above attending. Definitely
no child under 5 years old. Apologies for any inconvenience.

See http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/astrotour for more information.

*Bookings are essential* and can be made via email to

Cost is $10 per person which can be made at the door.

Please arrive at least 5-10 minutes before the advertised start time.
