Space Day on Sat 13 Apr at Firstsite celebrates the 200th anniversary of Jane Taylor’s passing and her legacy of writing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

Her rhyme ‘The Star’ known by most as ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’, penned in Colchester and published in 1806, has inspired generations through oral history to learn about science and art, through to modern illustrations and novels about science fiction and comics.

Come and watch nostalgic and current space themed films at Firstsite Cinema with all tickets just from £3, ready for our shuttle launch announcement for summer 2024.
