JUNE: OTHER WORLDS


Our imagination can take us to other worlds anytime we decide to read a book, write a story or simply daydream.

Modern affordable telescopes mean that anyone can look through a telescope, look into space and examine other worlds.



Scientists & astronomers have for a long time been exploring space. They’ve mapped our universe full of other planetary worlds and are trying to explore further into space. Astronauts push the boundaries of space travel so that one day we may be able to travel to other worlds ourselves.



Scientists and government organisations search for alien life forms and other worlds that can support life.

Aliens and other worlds are the basis for many sci-fi/ fantasy books, films and TV programmes.


Fiction has created worlds in parallel universes as well as secret & hidden worlds that can be reached through our own.


Think of the wardrobe that leads to Narnia & the magical world of Harry Potter kept secret from muggles.
















We also use the word ‘world’ in the sense of ‘the world of....’ Example: the world of music, the world of the rich and famous etc...... So in this way another world can be life outside of your personal experience. For instance the underwater world that exists out of sight under our seas and oceans.






Whether you want to write about the celebrity world, create a new alien world, imagine you’re an astronaut or write about your astronomy hobby – the theme of “other worlds” holds lots of possibilities.

What does the theme of ‘other worlds’ inspire you to write about?
We’d love to read your writing.
