The Museum of the Moon Returns in all its Lunar Glory

Love This? Save and Share!

The Museum of the Moon returns to London this month. Here’s what you need to know.

The stunning Museum of the Moon will return to London from December 13th 2022 – 5th of February 2023, and its setting will be equally spectacular. 

In case you missed it last time, the exhibition features a giant moon in a 1:500,000 scale that recreates the true surface of the moon from 120dpi NASA imagery. 

It all sounds very fancy, but that basically means that the image is super-high resolution and that each centimetre on the model represents 5km on the real moon. The sculpture is lit internally and looks just beautiful, often suspended from the ceiling in an equally enchanting location. 

What to Expect

Although the exhibition calls itself a museum, it’s probably more like a gallery. The focus is more on the display than learning. You’re likely to find people lying on the floor gazing up at the giant structure. 

This time around, the moon will be hung in the Painted Hall of the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich , a space that’s as intricately painted ceilings are as impressive as the moon is beautiful. 

But the best part of what happens when the moon comes to town is that its chosen venue hosts a series of events with the moon as a backdrop… And this time is no different. 

The Old Royal Naval College has a good run of events coming up – kicking off with a cocktail party and finishing with a celebration of the lunar new year in late January. As well as a Christmas party with Santa in attendance, a well-being session and a dinner party that sees the Painted Hall used in one of its original capacities.

Celebrate the moon landings with these stellar British events

Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took the historic first steps on the moon on 20 July 1969, an iconic moment in modern history. To celebrate 50 years since this monumental event for space exploration, 2019 will see numerous space, moon and star events taking place across Britain.

From exhibitions showing space-related wonders to top stargazing spots, Britain is ready to celebrate half a century of celestial exploration.

In collaboration with South Kensington cheese shop, La Cave à Fromage, the Natural History Museum presents an evening of cheese and wine tasting , underneath Luke Jerram’s moon installation, The Museum of the Moon . Four different cheeses will be paired with wine, while a museum scientist will educate groups about the moon and talk through a few pieces in the related collection. Originally a trio of events, the third in the series is the only one that still has availability. Tickets cost £48.75, with a discounted price available for members.

When? The last remaining event is 20 August 2019

Exploring the relationship between the earth and moon, the Natural History Museum presents ‘ Companion: Moon ’, a performance of multiple art forms, under the same moon installation ‘ The Museum of the Moon’ . Inspired by conversations with museum scientists, audience members can either observe or participate. This free performance lasts 15 minutes and will be shown multiple times over the course of the day.

When? Multiple performances throughout July and August 2019

Science Museum, London

Celebrate space exploration with a three-month ‘ Summer of Space’ festival of celestial events at the Science Museum. Highlights include an IMAX screening of Apollo 11: First Steps Edition, documenting the lift-off, journey and return home of the first moon landing expedition. Tickets are £11 for adults and £23 for a family.

When? July to September 2019

For an insightful evening of talks focusing on moon conspiracy theorists, the Science Museum will speak to a range of experts, including lecturers in psychology and space science, to discuss and debunk some of the major conspiracy theories surrounding the 1969 moon landing. Experts will also discuss the rise of fake news and the impact of social media. Tickets cost £10.

When? 31 July 2019

Visitors can join British astronaut Tim Peake for an immersive 360° virtual reality space experience, in Space Descent VR with Tim Peake . Going on a mission from the seat of the Soyuz capsule, this experience gives a near first-hand glimpse into an astronaut’s space journey. Tickets cost £7.

When? Open daily from May - September 2019

Allowing visitors to get closer to experiencing a journey to the moon, the Legend of Apollo 3D computer animation uses moving seats, wind, water and lighting alongside an in-depth 3D film to create an entirely immersive lunar event. Shown across two rooms, the pre-show documentary sets the scene, before viewers use 3D glasses to enjoy the main animation. Tickets cost £4.

When? Open daily until November 2019

Royal Museum Greenwich, London

The UK’s largest exhibition dedicated to Apollo 11’s moon exploration will land at the National Maritime Museum this July.

Visitors can also embark on ‘ Astronomy for Absolute Beginners’ classes and partake in Aurora Hunting , detailing how to spot the Northern Lights and where to go to see them. Ticketed events cost £22.50 for adults, and £19.50 for concessions.

Dark Sky Sites, UK

Boasting four of the thirteen official Dark Skies Reserves in the world, Britain has a strong pull for serious stargazers.

The museum of the moon, chichester cathedral hosts luke jerram’s touring artwork, the museum of the moon..

Measuring seven metres in diameter, the Museum of the Moon features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the lunar surface. At an approximate scale of 1:500,000, each centimetre of the internally-lit spherical sculpture represents 5km of the moon’s surface.

The installation, which will be on display within the Cathedral’s Nave, is a fusion of lunar imagery, and surround sound composition created by BAFTA and Ivor Novello award-winning Bristol-based composer Dan Jones.

Over its lifetime, the Museum of the Moon is being presented in a number of different ways both indoors and outdoors, so altering the experience and interpretation of the artwork. As it travels from place to place, it gathers new musical compositions and an ongoing collection of personal responses, stories and mythologies, as well as highlighting the latest moon science.

The artwork will be accompanied by a programme of events, concerts and late-night openings, delivered by a variety of organisations, including the South Downs Planetarium, Chichester’s Novium Museum and the West Sussex Library Service, encouraging people far and wide to celebrate the night skies of Sussex. Activities for children and families will also be made available from October Half Term.

Luke Jerram’s multidisciplinary practice involves the creation of sculptures, installations and live art projects. Living in the UK but working internationally for 19 years, Jerram has created a number of extraordinary art projects which have excited and inspired people around the globe. Jerram has a set of different narratives that make up his practice which are developing in parallel with one another. He is known worldwide for his large scale public artworks.

The Museum of the Moon will be on display from 25th October – 14th November 2021. General entry to the Cathedral is free, and donations are welcome. Chichester Cathedral continues to respond to guidance issued by Public Health England and has made a number of changes to ensure those who visit the Cathedral can do so safely.

‘HERE IS EVERYTHING’ DELUXE

‘Giant fizzy tangled strings of feelings’: The Big Moon’s postnatal LP

Covid and parenthood have added deep new dimensions to the telepathically entwined indie rockers latest, Here is Everything

J uliette Jackson is describing the song that made her feel human again. “It makes you feel like you’re not a fucking weirdo,” she says. “I got messages from people who get it. You find out that you’re not the only person who has Googled: ‘Can you die of sleep deprivation?’”

The track in question, Wide Eyes – released in July – was the first single from the Big Moon’s third album. Where the first two records from Jackson and her bandmates cocked a snook at bad men and the trials of twentysomething life (Jackson once described her aesthetic as “trying to seduce but stepping in dog poo”), the single found them in their rawest state yet. It’s the kind of slowly swelling, minor-key love song liable to make listeners’ bottom lips tremble, charting a bond that makes you ”want to dance” and “want to cry” at the same time.

That love, of course, is the new baby kind. Having got engaged (in true indie frontwoman style) on stage at Green Man festival in 2019, Jackson ticked off another milestone with the birth of her son last year. Channelling it into her output might seem challenging, given the often insouciant quality of the Big Moon’s music. Indeed, on the Mercury-nominated Love in the 4th Dimension – released in 2017 – Jackson and guitarist Soph Nathan, drummer Fern Ford and Celia Archer, the band’s bassist, made retro-flecked bangers on topics including a man trying to improve the taste of his semen, with more than a hint of Blur-ish sardonicism. On their 2020 follow up, the Top 20-bothering Walking Like We Do , stylish synthpop crept in, but levity still bubbled just below the surface (see: Take a Piece’s boyband-inspired video , or the quietly compelling Your Light ). And yet, their new effort, Here Is Everything, sounds like exactly what it is: the same Big Moon but older, wiser and no longer sleeping on sofas on tour. “When you’re in your early 20s, you don’t really need personal space,” deadpans Ford.

Despite a marked reduction in side-eye, in person they retain the same fizzy energy, not only finishing one another’s sentences but often taking turns to form one full thought together, as though playing the childhood game where you write a sentence and fold over a piece of paper before passing it on. On the subject of folding birth-related trauma into music, it’s intriguing to see how they respond. “I should be allowed to [write songs] how I want, and have some distance from their subject matter,” says Archer. “I don’t need to let you assess my therapy.”

“That should be the whole point,” Nathan adds. Although it was Jackson who became a mother – and is the band’s lyricist – as everyone slips into first person over a coffee it feels like something of a shared experience.

Armchair psychology aside, one thing is certain: the band are very, very grateful to be back. The pandemic hit just after Walking Like We Do was released, and threw their plans – along with those of most of the music industry – off course. “We were gonna play the Royal Albert Hall?” asks Jackson, bemused, when reminded of plans that were junked overnight. “Every now and again someone says: ‘It was all coming for you that year’, and I hate it. It’s like, I actually didn’t realise all the things that might have happened until you just told me.” Other jobs were found (Archer worked on a farm, Ford and Nathan did delivery jobs and, er, Jackson covered a Woody Guthrie song with Courtney Love). Music lessons were taught online and further side hustles established, until the band could reunite. They admit that they weren’t happy with their initial attempt at the new album. (“It was this lumpy thing from the past we weren’t dealing with,” says Jackson.) Luckily, Ford had constructed a studio in her flat during the pandemic, and the band self-produced their second run at the album, fuelled by an endless supply of tea and with the baby by their side. “Building it was a fucking headache,” says Ford of her home setup. “But I’m glad I did it.” Jackson bigs her bandmate up. “ That’s the stuff of dreams. That’s pretty major.” “Let us know if you need a carpenter … or a producer,” adds Nathan with a laugh.

The process was, says Jackson, “really special. The freedom to be able to make what we wanted to and have enough time to do it felt really good”.

The joys and despairs on the record are often as overt as Jackson’s Beyoncé-esque pregnancy shot on the album cover. On Wide Eyes, songwriter Jessica Winter helped her tease her love and exhaustion into stark verses and a singalong chorus, while 2 Lines is a tense, slacker-rock contemplation of the early phase of parenthood when “it’s too soon to shout, no fanfare yet” – and High and Low does indeed pose that million-dollar question about sleep deprivation. On Ladye Bay, the baby’s “bowling ball head” is a memorable punchline, but in other places the concept of motherhood is more oblique. “There are tracks that just sound like a pop song but which, to me, are wrapped in giant, fizzy, tangled strings of feelings that are so much more than that,” says Jackson. “Daydreaming is about breastfeeding – sitting there in a daze and just spending all day exhausted for months.” That’s all you do, day and night. I had such a bad experience breastfeeding – I couldn’t do it – and I was going through this period of loss. It was like a grief. With the song, I was trying to make it nice for myself and, I guess, recover a bit. Get some distance from it by writing a song that I wanted to dance to.”

Jackson is candid about how tough she has found things at times, and the dearth of help for new parents. “The official care you’re given isn’t enough,” she says. “You’re going through this massive hormonal crash, and it’s dark.” She quotes an interview Olivia Colman gave to the Guardian, where the actor said that she didn’t know anyone who hasn’t had “a little bit of postnatal depression”. “I really understood that,” she adds. “It’s really hard to stay on top of things. There needs to be more support.” The conversation continues for some time, with Jackson’s bandmates as passionate as her about making the music industry – and the world at large – more manageable for new parents.

after newsletter promotion

You get the sense that, while challenging, the past few years have ultimately brought the band closer. While Wide Eyes is a song about their unofficial fifth member, the video is centred on the Big Moon coming back together – sans hand sanitiser – to perform an elaborately choreographed handshake masterminded by frequent collaborator Louis Bhose. “After all the hard work, it was perfect timing for something like that,” says Nathan.

Archer nods: “When you play together, you get oxytocin, that cuddle hormone. Gazing into each other’s faces, singing these really beautiful words and holding each other’s hands … it was really nice.”

Jackson continues the theme, as is the band’s habit. “You wouldn’t believe how many times we slapped each other’s hands,” she says with a laughs. “I had bruises down my arms from trying to get it right. It was great. I absolutely loved it.” Here Is Everything is released on 14 October; The Big Moon tour the UK from Monday 19 to 28 September and 12 to 20 October.

The Big Moon announce UK headline tour for 2022

"Gahhhh it’s finally happeniiiing!"

The Big Moon have announced a UK headline tour set to take place in 2022 – check out all the details below.

• The NME Big Read: The Big Moon: “Everything feels big, strange, and very scary”

The London band will hit the road next May in support of their second album ‘Walking Like We Do’ , which was released in January 2020. Tickets are available  here .

Sharing the news on social media earlier today (October 12), the group reflected on the lack of live dates since their latest record’s release, owing to disruptions caused by the coronavirus pandemic. “Gahhhh it’s finally happeniiiing!” they wrote. “The Big Moon Big Tour coming to a city near you in 2022!”

They continued: “2020 was set to be a big year for us and this tour in particular is something we’ve been working towards our whole careers so we are thrilled to be able to keep all the original cities and announce these new and (hopefully fingers crossed pray to any and all goddesses) final official dates.”

The Big Moon also thanked fans for their patience, adding: “We love you and we can’t WAIT to see you and put on an incredible show for you. And to everyone who hasn’t yet – NOW IS THE TIME!! It’s gonna be a very special one. See you in the pit x”

The tour will kick off in Glasgow on May 23, with gigs then following in Newcastle (May 24), Sheffield (May 25), Manchester (May 27), Birmingham (May 28), Cardiff (May 29) and Brighton (May 31). The band will wrap up the jaunt with a homecoming performance at The O2 Forum in Kentish Town, London.

You can see the full list of dates in the post above.

Although The Big Moon have not yet performed any headline dates in support of ‘Walking Like We Do’, the group did take to the stage at festivals including Neighbourhood Weekender , Boardmasters and Standon Calling over the summer.

Last month, the band supported Kaiser Chiefs and Courteeners at their shows at Halifax’s Piece Hall and Manchester’s Old Trafford Cricket Ground respectively.

In a review of the latter gig, NME wrote : “Kicking off with ‘Sucker’, openers The Big Moon exude an air of cool, their gritty and melodic guitar lines ring out blissfully as the sunshine beams down on us. Singer Juliette Jackson struggles to contain her joy when she says, ‘It’s nice to see your smiling faces’, while the band coast into the golden indie-pop of ‘Barcelona’.

“Reading the scale of the event, they drop a rousing cover of Fatboy Slim’s ‘Praise You’, but their own material is the real winner – a highlight coming with their dreamy and melodic anthem ‘Cupid’.”

Really nice small honest concert in Nottingham. It was somewhat of a promotion for their first/new album, fine balance between "newer" and "older” songs. The venue was rather tiny (with the obvious plus and minus from that). Nevertheless, the sound quality was overall good and the band performance was solid, didn't notice any particular issues. Can't say we were the most energetic crowd, but that’s to be expected on a Sunday afternoon I feel (and that was perhaps more fitting for the venue). Would also like to mention that the signing of records/posters afterwards was really appreciated. So, overall a pleasant experience and an afternoon well spent.

Where do I start it was awesome. The venue was great very well planned out. And the concert was great. It was intimate and still felt massive. The band were awesome they signed my record and took pictures with me they wanted to chat and find out about about everyone also they could not thank me enough for coming. I loved it.

I've been to two of their concerts, both in Brussels but in different venues. Both of their shows were great! I hope they come back to Belgium soon. Can't wait to see them again.

Loved the show, the ladies are down to earth and a lot of fun. Terribly Yours was good as well. The venue was small and 5he sound wasn't that great but they still rocked it out.

Ah me! A rather dead crowd was treated to a beautiful set of old and new, to welcome the biggest album of 2020. What an honour to have been there. Fabulous xx

Lyrid meteor shower: How UK stargazers can watch the oldest annual meteor shower

Although clouds and the spring's 'pink moon' will thwart some stargazers, many parts of the UK will see the oldest meteor shower known to man.

By Mickey Carroll, science and technology reporter

Monday 22 April 2024 12:06, UK

Parts of the UK are being treated to a dazzling display as the oldest annual meteor shower known to man streaks through the Earth's atmosphere.

The Lyrid meteor shower peaks during late April every year and was first spotted in 687 BC by Chinese stargazers. This particular display is known for its fast and bright meteors and produces around 18 an hour.

How to watch the Lyrid meteor shower

The moon is nearly full tonight and will be Spring's 'pink moon', which sadly looks the same as any other full moon. The brightness of the moon means you'll need to watch more carefully to see the shower.

Try to move away from lights to reduce light pollution and look towards the darkest parts of the sky once the sun has set this evening. For the best view, NASA recommends watching during the 'dark hours' after the moon has set and before the sun has risen. For the UK, that'll be around 5am.

Clouds have long thwarted stargazers and for parts of the UK, tonight will be no different. The best places to watch the shower will be around Preston, Manchester, Kendal, Scotland and around the South East coast from Lowestoft to Brighton.

NASA recommends letting your eyes adjust to the dark for around 30 minutes. After that, you'll begin to see meteors.

"Be patient," says the space agency, "The show will last until dawn, so you have plenty of time to catch a glimpse."

The Lyrids peaked overnight into 22 April but will be visible for the rest of the month around the Northern Hemisphere. The further away from the peak, however, the fewer you'll see.

What causes the Lyrid meteor shower

The Lyrids come from the constellation of Lyra. Their actual origin is the Comet Thatcher, which isn't named after the former prime minister but the amateur astronomer Alfred Thatcher, who discovered it in 1861.

Meteors are chunks of debris left in the wake of comets and other celestial objects. When Earth passes the debris, some of it falls into the atmosphere.

These chunks are moving very quickly compared to our atmosphere so the air around them heats up.

This makes the meteor heat up too and glow brightly, which is what we see.

The surface of these meteors can reach up to 1600 degrees celsius.

Pink Moon 2024: What is it? And why you might not see what you expect

Full moon coincides with lyrid meteor shower, article bookmarked.

The pink moon will rise in the sky tonight – but it is not what its name suggests.

The moon itself is not pink. While it can sometimes take on an unusual hue – such as pink, red, or orange – the “pink moon” does not refer to such a phenomenon.

Instead, the pink moon is simply the name for April’s full moon. It is the name that comes from The Old Farmer’s Almanac and takes its name from the fact that it would arrive alongside the blooms of the plant known as Phlox subulata .

That wildflower, usually known as moss phlox or creeping phlox, comes out in a bright pink. As such, that colour became associated with the Moon.

In other cultures, it is also given the names “the sprouting grass moon, the egg moon, and the fish moon”, according to the Royal Museums Greenwich.

The other full moons of the year have their own names – the “worm” comes before the pink, for instance, and the “flower” comes after it. Those names are often described as being traditional, and are taking from the Almanac that often cited colonial or Native American sources, but have become particularly popular recently.

The fact that the “pink moon” is really just the Moon means that it is, however, easy to see the Moon. You simply need to step outside and look up.

It is often best to see the Moon when it rises above the horizon, since that allows it to appear more dramatic and often larger in comparison with the buildings and trees that might be in front of it.

This April’s full Moon also coincides with the Lyrid meteor shower . However, the brightness of the Moon means that it can be hard to spot the streaking lights of those meteors.
