School trip to Jodrell Bank
I went on a school trip to Jodrell Bank from my primary school Our Lady's, in Edgeley, Stockport. I was fascinated with the oscilloscopes, small rockets and smaller dishes as well as, of course, the giant dish. It made me feel close to space exploration at the time of the moon landings. I didn't go on to become an astronaut or astronomer, but it certainly had a positive effect. I am going to take my 6 year old daughter there as soon as possible, just in case.
