Luxembourg’s Museum of Natural History is running a special series of space-related exhibitions and events, including the “In the skin of an astronaut” VR experience.

Put on by the Museum of Natural History in cooperation with the University of Luxembourg’s Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust, the “In the skin of an astronaut” exhibit will be up and running on 18 November. Open to all audiences and free (not counting a €5 surcharge to get into the museum), the event actually runs most weekends until February 2024 (find the exact calendar .)

No need to book--walk in between 2:30pm and 5:30pm to participate.

The VR experience is available in English (as well as Luxembourgish, French and German.)
