    We're challenging families to complete a trail of town centre businesses and track down eight space-themed installations to complement the Pop-Up Planetarium in the Market Square. Launching this weekend, the immersive 360-degree experience is expected to bring in thousands of children over the next month, discovering more about our solar system and the universe beyond. Sitting alongside the Planetarium GO UK experience will be a digital trail featuring eight space-themed installations housed in eight separate locations. The activity will see participants encouraged to complete the trail by answering a question at each location on their phone, with all those visiting all eight locations entered into a prize draw for the chance to win one of two £50 vouchers to spend in Northampton town centre. Trail locations include Grosvenor Shopping Northampton, Sol Northampton, Northamptonshire Central Library, Northampton Museum & Art Gallery, Butterwicks, Skipton Building Society and Northampton Market Square.
