What's Showing

Public Show

Our current public show is titled "Listening to Light." Runtime about 55 minutes.

The show begins with a full-dome video called "Audio Universe: Tour of the Solar System." Photos of stars, planets, and other objects in space are captured light, often converted to colors our eyes can see. But what if we convert that light to sound instead? Join us for a new perspective on space, using sound.

The show continues with a live presentation of the evening sky with constellations, a visit to Mars, and more sounds of space.

Upcoming Shows

The show will change in November 2024. Title to be announced later.

Format

Public shows incorporate full-dome video and a live presentation of what is up in the current night sky. Recent astronomical discoveries may also be presented.

The live content of the show changes throughout the year to reflect changes in the evening skies and new developments in science.

Shows may include stunning images of stellar nebulas, travel to distant planets or stars, and detailed instruction on how to identify constellations!
