Have you ever looked up at the night sky and wondered what is out there beyond our planet?
Built in 1883, Coats Observatory – the oldest public observatory in Scotland – holds a vast range of telescopes and a state of the art digital planetarium.
One of the key pieces includes a fully-working orrery (model of the solar system) made by Adam Hilger.
The observatory also served as a seismic recording centre monitoring earthquakes worldwide, which included the famous 1906 San Francisco quake.
