Planet Mars lands in east London museum
Mars landed in east London on Saturday, November 23, when a giant representation of the red planet went on show in the historic Painted Hall of the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich, in the eastern part of the capital.
Under the gaze of kings and gods depicted in murals that date from the 18th century, the seven-meter (21-foot) artwork spun slowly, showing high resolution NASA imagery of the Martian surface. Each centimeter of the sculpture represents 10 kilometers of the surface of the planet.
Mars is on show until January 20, 2025.

01:16The
01:39room is itself a huge room, like a massive amount of space, and then this sculpture
01:47of Mars, just, it's enormous.
01:51And so when you sort of think about, you know, I'm from Australia and it took us so long
01:55just to get over to England, and that's just the planet Earth, and that's like half the
01:59planet of Earth, and then this distance out to Mars, this huge planet as well, and it's
02:05not even the biggest planet in our solar system.
02:06So I guess for me, it's about how huge everything is, and it makes you feel really small I guess
02:15in some way.
