GSC also includes the Glasgow Tower, a striking 100m structure on the city's skyline that boasts being the world's only tower to revolve 360 degrees from the base of the structure. In June the National Space Centre opens in Leicester as the UK's only attraction dedicated to space science and astronomy.
