THERE are lots of fun to be had at the Winchester Science Museum this Easter.

Grab your velour tracksuit and put on your tinted sunglasses. Winchester Science Centre will continue to celebrate 20 years of science by taking visitors back to the stylish days of 2002.

Between Saturday, March 19, and Sunday, May 8, including the Easter school holidays, visitors will be recruited to the Planet Protectors, a team of noughties eco-fashion warriors. Fun facts and explosive demos will bring to life how fashion can affect the climate. Visitors can also blast off into the Solar System in the Planetarium, get hands-on with the two floors of interactive exhibits and head outside into nature in Bio:Space.

This spring, visitors are being recruited to join the Planet Protectors to explore the carbon cycle of clothes, discover why green is the new black when it comes to fabric dying, delve into the world of alternative fuels, discover more about ocean acidification through an awesome experiment and watch as fabric is transformed using only natural dyes.

There are also two brand new shows ready to blast visitors off on an adventure in the Planetarium. Head off on an out-of-this-world family journey in the live show, Atmospheres. Or why not zoom off on a tour of the icy landscapes of the Solar System in the subtitled film show, Ice Worlds. Find out how ice has sculpted and transformed the Solar System, including on Earth.
