STAR Centre takes remote pictures of universe. 

First Cullingworth Brownies have used the STAR Centre Mission Control to operate a robotic telescope based on the island of La Palma, one of the Canary islands. The girls used the telescope run by John Moores University Liverpool to take some stunning pictures of the gas giant Saturn and its magnificent rings and of a distant elliptical galaxy. The telescope is one of the largest robotic telescopes in the world measuring 2 metres in diameter was operated by the Brownies from the STAR Centre mission control as part of their work towards gaining their Star Gazer badge.
