Lovely learning place for science head, many interesting hidden gems💎

This is where my other part of me lives! It's the physics building and gosh I looove Physics, astrophysics ❤️🔥. On this night, 23 May 2019, we were watching the moon as it occulted the planet Saturn from around 22:30 till around 23:20. It was magical looking through the telescopes that were set up on the roof of this building! We also observed Jupiter, the biggest planet(gas giant) in our solar system. Observed many other stars and celestial bodies. Truly magnificent!!!

Fantastic experience, 10/10 would recommend doing those white board tuts all afternoon

Lots of nice rooms and small lecture theatres to work and hide in. The physicists are socially awkward so they won't bother you. 5/5
