Public Guided Tours of the Hawking Building are now sold out. From March 2026, we will be running tours 7 days a week. Sign up to our newsletter to be the first to hear when tickets go on sale.

Walk among hundreds of large objects—including a Spacelab 2 X-ray telescope carried into orbit by the US Space Shuttle Challenger and an iconic Sno-Cat. Explore the aisles of over 30,000 metres of shelving containing objects from Stephen Hawking’s office, and a toy duck that helped a spacecraft land on a comet.
