TWO Russians will be telling stories on Teesside this month which are out of this world.

Space walker Alexandre Alexandrov and space ballistics expert Alexandre Martynov, who was responsible for landing space vehicles on the Moon, Mars and Venus, are to speak to youngsters about their adventures.

Three Teesside colleges, Prior Pursglove at Guisborough, Stockton Sixth Form and Bede College, Billingham, have been working with Dr John McCue, director of the Castle Eden Walkway planetarium, to organise the five-day visit.

There is a chance for other people to hear about their experiences at a lecture, which includes exclusive video footage, at the City Learning Centre, in Eston, on October 8.

Anyone who wants tickets is asked to call the Prior Pursglove College on (01287) 280800
