STUDENTS had an out-of-this-world astrophysics masterclass.
Year nine pupils at Chipping Campden School were treated to a three hour practical workshop presented by Hayley Smith, lead educator from the National Space Academy.
The academy visit schools to enhance the teaching of astronomy, geophysics and a universe full of science.
Explosions, dry ice, vacuums and the destructive power of comets and asteroids were just some of the fun aspects of the workshop.
It also covered a wide range of space related theoretical and practical areas.
These included making a telescope; modelling the universe with a balloon, the challenges of living in space demonstrated by marshmallow astronauts in syringes and pupils watched in wonder as a comet was made out of dry ice, Worcester sauce, sand, water and carbon powder.
