Join us for a FREE family-friendly planetarium show! On March 6th, 2025, we will be showing To Space and Back.

To Space and Back takes audiences on an incredible journey from the far reaches of our known universe to our own planet. It is an extraordinary story of human ingenuity and incredible engineering, describing how the technology that transports us through space is paving the way for the devices and apps we use every day. What’s happening above is coming back down to Earth!

Discover how we’ve been changed by space exploration, and what we owe to curiosity and the spirit of discovery.

Recommended for ages 8+.

After the show, we will open our observatory where visitors can look through a telescope at stars, planets, and more (weather permitting).
