“Our Night Sky” Planetarium Show

Start: May 17, 2024 5 p.m.
End: May 17, 2024 6 p.m.

People often peer into the darkness of the night sky and wonder, “what is out there?” Seemingly dark regions of space are actually filled with nebulae, star clusters, and other galaxies. Come learn how to navigate the sky by using bright stars and constellations with the help of a star chart, and discover what fascinating objects exist deep in space.

Most suitable for all ages 8+, all ages welcome
