ONE of Edinburgh’s star tourist attractions has kicked off a week-long festival of astronomy, the universe and everything.
Exploding marshmallows, an inflatable planetarium and a host of cosmic exhibitions will all feature at Our Dynamic Earth over the Easter weekend, until April 13.
The festival, dubbed the “Astronomical Astronomy Circus”, aims to capture the imaginations of stargazers both young and old.
Visitors will get the chance to build robots out of Lego, “terra-form” Mars and enjoy an intimate planetarium experience.
