Our Place in Space solar system trail lands in Liverpool - pictures

Our Place in Space has landed in Liverpool, bringing an 8.1k solar system trail to the city.

The colourful pictures below show the start of the trail on Church Street, with giant installations of the sun and planet Earth. The huge trail travels all the way from the city centre, down along the riverside and finishes in Otterspool.

Designed by artist Oliver Jeffers, astrophysicist Professor Stephen Smartt, and a creative team led by Nerve Centre, the trail lets you explore the solar system on foot or by bike. Along the trail, there are colourful arches, which are lit up with the names of each planet.
