๐Ÿ—“ Now till Monday 20 January 2025 - closed 24-26 December 2024 & 5 January 2025.

๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ Book online to avoid disappointment. You can convert qualifying tickets into an annual pass.

Where art, science and history converge in the Painted Hall at the UNESCO Heritage Site, the @oldroyalnavalcollege hosts Mars, a 7 metres in diameter rotating replica of our planetary neighbour at a scale of 1:1 million.

The illuminated Mars is created using 120dpi data from NASA allowing us to examine the desert surface of this distant planet.

Following his โ€˜Museum of the Moonโ€™ and โ€˜Gaiaโ€™, @lukejerramartist encourages us to reflect on the contrasts between the Earth and its neighbouring desert world.

When you visit the Painted Hall, be sure to read a signboard detailing where Sir James Thornhill (1675-1735)โ€™s Painted Hall ceiling depicts the mythical connection on war with Mars.

In our chosen soundtrack from Gustav Holst: The Planets โ€˜Marsโ€™, the composer wrote it anticipating the outbreak of World War One.
