TIM Peake, the first British astronaut to spend time above the earth on the International Space Station, will be sharing his experiences in space with an audience in Blackburn next year.

Tickets go on sale tomorrow for My Journey to Space which is coming to King George’s Hall on Tuesday, March 21.

In the one-man show, Tim gives a fascinating insight into life as an astronaut, complete with breath-taking photographs and never-before-seen footage.

Tim joined the European Space Agency (ESA) in 2009, after an 18-year career in the army. In December 2015, he became the first British astronaut to visit the International Space Station to conduct a spacewalk while orbiting Earth.

He said: “One thing I never anticipated in being selected for the ESA programme, was just how much my own experiences would inspire and fascinate others.”
