About Tim Peake: Astronauts – The Quest To Explore Space

With fewer than 650 people having reached Earth’s orbit, nobody is more qualified thanโ€ฏTim to celebrate the historic achievements and human endeavours of space exploration.

Up until now, Timโ€ฏhas brought his own incredible journey to life through unparalleled storytelling and extraordinary archive footage.โ€ฏIn this new show, Tim will share the remarkable stories of some of his fellow astronauts and explore the spectacular evolution of space travel.

From the first forays into space in the 1950s to the first human missions destined for Mars,โ€ฏTim will traverse the final frontier. As he recounts the awe-inspiring endeavours of astronauts across the ages, Tim will reveal what spaceflight is truly like: from the wondrous view of Earth, living in weightlessness, the unique dangers and unexpected moments of humour, to the years of training and psychological and physical pressures that an astronaut has to take on. 

Following his sold-out success in 2024, we are delighted to announce ‘Astronauts: The Quest to Explore Space’โ€ฏis heading to Oxford this Autumn.โ€ฏThe journey has only just begun…come and joinโ€ฏTim for this one-of-a-kind show.
