      I love looking at the stars and the moon <3
      I love learning about space, but find it really difficult, especially imagining how big everything it.
      If you have a chance to watch it Professor Brian Cox has a TV show based on space "Wonders of the Universe" – in which he explains everything brilliantly, and the show looks great too 😀

      I love all of the beautiful things in spaces, but the space itself – how cold it is and how far the distances are is really slightly scary. For example, just getting to Mars will take about 2 years of travel time. And that’s one of the closest things to Earth. It would be amazing if we could come up with a faster way of transport. Fingers crossed for warp speed!

      I think space is absolutely fascinating! I love looking up at the stars, but I don’t do it for too long because it kind of blows my mind a bit! Do you like it?

      Where I’m from in Scotland, there’s a place nearby that has one of the darkest night skies in the world, so it is perfect for stargazing! It is called Galloway Forest Park. Also, when I lived in Spain, there was another dark sky there too! You can see The Milky Way quite easily. These places usually have very low light pollution so are great for looking up into space, try going sometime!
