SUMMARY:FCOA visit to National Space Centre (NSC) Leicester
DESCRIPTION:Date:    Thursday 16 August 2018 at 11:30 Prompt\n\nPlaces available – 20:  Allocated on a first-come-first-served basis for FCOA members\, spouses/ partners.\n\nNB\, as a first\, this visit also includes members who are looking after children in school holidays\, \n\nand who may wish to bring them.  (To get the most out of the day\, NSC advise children aged 7 and above).\n\nIf space allows nearer the day\, non-FCOA members may be eligible\, but please check with Tim Handley first.\n\n\nPrice per person:  £13 per head\, adults or children. (NSC are operating a flat-group rate)\n\nDescription:   With thanks to Liz Galvez for suggesting this visit\, this is a unique opportunity to see a leading\ninternational centre in space research and to see exhibits which have captured the world’s headlines. These\ninclude one of only 3 known Soyuz spacecraft\, and the restaurant is situated beneath the nozzles of the Blue Streak\nand Thor rockets.  Famous visitors include Buzz Aldrin\, the second man to walk on the moon.  The failed Beagle\nMars spacecraft was controlled from here.\n\nhttps://spacecentre.co.uk\n\nWe will be on the Jupiter Programme\, which includes Fast Track Entry; Space crew briefing; entry to the\nGalleries; Planetarium show and 3D SIM Ride.  We will be able to stay until the NSC closes at 17:00. After the\ninitial briefing\, members will be free to visit the exhibits at their own pace\, many of which encourage\n“hands-on.” These are self-explanatory\, but there are guides at hand in each of the Halls to advise further.\nIf members wish\, we can re-assemble for lunch (at individual expense) in the restaurant – see Blue Streak\nand Thor\, above.\n\nGetting to the National Space Centre\, Leicester\n\nBy train:  from London (St Pancras to Leicester)\, then either taxi to NSC\, or a No 54 bus\, every 10 minutes\,\nfrom the station\, dropping off near to the NSC. Similar for the return to the station.\n\nBy car: The NSC is on Exploration Drive in the central area of Leicester (See above link\, Postcode LE4 5NS)\n\nApply on-line or by post:   up to 20 places will be available\n\nClosing date: Mid-day\, Monday 13 August:\n\nContact:  Tim.Handley@fco.gov.uk\, FCOA\, Room KG 42\, King Charles St\, London SW1A 2AH.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRefunds:  Please note that as the FCOA has already incurred expenditure\, no refunds  may be given.
