British Astronaut Tim Peake Coming to Scarborough

Monday, 27 June 2022 08:00

By Matthew Pells

British astronaut Tim Peake is bringing his one-man show My Journey To Space to Scarborough next year.

Tim made history in 2015 as the first British astronaut to visit the International Space Station.

In 2021 he embarked on his debut tour of My Journey To Space giving audiences a fascinating insight into life as an astronaut, complete with breath-taking photographs and never-before-seen footage.

The tour has now been extended into 2023 and Tim will be at Scarborough's Grand Hall on Saturday, March 18, as he shares the secrets and science of how and why humans journey into space.

Tim joined the European Space Agency (ESA) in 2009, after an 18-year career in the Army. In December 2015, he became the first British astronaut to visit the International Space Station to conduct a spacewalk while orbiting Earth.

Tim says:

“One thing I never anticipated in being selected for the ESA programme, was just how much my own experiences would inspire and fascinate others,”

“I will always be mesmerised by space and space travel, but I am just as honoured to be able to travel the country sharing my story and experiences.”
 
Tim's one man show chronicles his thrilling journey to the International Space Station, offering unprecedented access, from training to launch, spacewalk to re-entry.
