For 12 minutes, the Science Museum's new attraction offers visitors the closest they'll ever get to being an astronaut without having to wee through a tube or eat that weird freeze-dried space ice-cream that they sell in gift shops. You pop on a virtual reality headset and a pair of headphones, and are talked through a 360 degree virtual reality recreation of Tim Peake's descent from space back to earth. It's a mind-blowingly impressive visual feat that'll have you bracing for impact and shrieking as space-crafts whizz inches from your nose. With Tim Peake himself talking you through the experience, it's an impressively authentic recreation of what it's like to re-enter earth's atmosphere. Then, afterwards, you can always go downstairs and see the real-life descent module that Peake - sorry, you - piloted back to our planet's surface. Alexi Duggins
