In a bid to win an amazing new resource for East Ayrshire, Doon Academy star pupil Kyle McCormick will present the case for the people's planetarium on STV at 6pm on Monday, 27 June.

The planetarium bid has reached the finals of the Jubilee People's Millions - and with enough votes, we can win.

The soon to be built Scottish Dark Sky Observatory will be based at the UK's first dark sky park, in the hills above Loch Doon. Dark skies there - the largest in western Europe - will provide inspiration for schools, families, community groups and visitors.

Plan is for the project to also provide a mobile planetarium, which will open up the wonders of the night sky to a wider ranging audience - and will be transported to schools and community locations.

The East Ayrshire project is backed by the Astronomer Royal for Scotland, Professor John Brown, who said: "This location enjoys some of the darkest skies in Europe and they are among the darkest skies that most people in the world will ever see" - perfect for clear viewing of amazing stars, comets and planets.

The planetarium will be a superb educational and cultural resource for pupils, university students and stargazing members of the public. Visitors from all over will be able to explore the wonders of the universe from within the Galloway forest.

We are up against stiff competition - so we need as many votes as possible.

Voting is by telephone - and for one day only. So don't phone home - phone STV!
