Planetarium Show: Tonight’s Sky

Take a tour of the summer night sky with Robin, our Astronomy Education Specialist. Learn what constellations and bright stars are in the night sky this time of year and what planets we can see. Experience some of the incredible deep sky objects this sky has to offer including galaxies, star clusters, and more. And hear some star stories along the way. Come, be inspired, and enjoy the wonders of the night sky.

Please arrive 10 minutes before show time. For safety reasons, once the Planetarium door is closed no one will be admitted.
