The Novium Museum in Chichester has announced that the exhibition will launch in December, covering everything from Tim growing up in Chichester to becoming the first British European Space Agency astronaut. Tim’s father, Nigel, is part of the project group pulling the exhibition together.
He said: ‘I’m delighted that this imaginative project will help to continue Tim’s mission message about the importance of science and space, especially to young people.
