      Hi! I already go to schools with the University of Southampton’s inflatable planetarium, called the astrodome, to talk about astronomy and what I do, so I’d love to! If you get your teacher to go to http://www.astro.soton.ac.uk/~s.jones/ (you can have a look too!) all the info is there. It’s all free and the show is really cool! (Though it might depend how far away your school is…). We can project the night sky on the inside of the dome all around you and zoom in to different things in space so that we can talk about them. We only have enough money to take it to a limited number of schools though, which is why I want to spend the prize money on taking it to more schools. So voting for me will help with that 😀
