Daily Planetarium Shows June 2 – August 8

Daily Planetarium Shows June 2 – August 8

Experience our exciting shows on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, featuring intriguing topics on space, history, and how various cultures around the globe view the night sky, both past and present! Be sure to inquire at the front desk during check-in for details on today's specific show. These shows are typically suitable for ages 5 and up.

On Tuesdays, check out the Young Astronauts show, and blast off to the planetarium in this show perfect for astronauts-in-training ages 3-5 from 2:00-2:30 p.m. All ages are welcome, but the focus on this show will be for the little ones to enjoy!

On Thursday, the interactive Global Soundscapes show is the place to be! Soundscapes takes you on a sound safari to explore the health of our planet...with your ears. Travel the globe with scientists to investigate the spectacular soundscapes of Costa Rica’s rainforests, Hawaii’s coral reefs, and Mongolia’s vast grasslands. Learn how animals use sounds to survive and communicate in lush, but threatened environments. Experience basic acoustics through interactive activities and incredible slow-motion footage of pulsating musical instruments, vibrating vocal cords, and slobbering “raspberries.” With Global Soundscapes’ unique format—combining full-dome imagery, surround sound, and live presentation—you’ll hear the Earth in a whole new way.
