The incredible Museum of the Moon' exhibition uses NASA imagery to recreate an amazingly realistic impression of the moon's surface.

It is now touring the UK and is currently at St Mary Magdalene Church in Taunton, Somerset before moving on to Northwich, Cheshire at the end of April.

It was created by Bristol artist Luke Jerram and has been on display at both Exeter and Wells Cathedral.

The installation, which features music compared by BAFTA and Ivor Novello Award-winning composer Dan Jones, has been wowing audiences across the world since 2016.
