British Science Week 2026 - Space Live Lesson

Join Grace Webb, Matt Green and awesome astronaut Tim Peake on a fact-finding mission to make Moon: The Movie, starring the one and only moon from Horrible Science!

Help turn the moon from Horrible Science into a movie star in an out-of-this-world BBC Live Lesson during British Science Week!

Join presenter Grace Webb and the Rapping Science Teacher Matt Green as they gear up for the premiere of Moon: The Movie. There’s just one small problem. The film hasn’t been made yet! So, become part of the production crew and help Grace and Matt create a moon-tastic masterpiece in time for its big-screen debut.

Reinforcing key learning objectives, this Live Lesson explores light and space through hands-on experiments and challenges you can try yourself.

Plus, astronaut Tim Peake is on hand to share his most mind-boggling moon facts, and Matt uses his rapping skills to teach us about the solar system.

Grab your popcorn, settle in and prepare for lights, camera and action!
