Join us for a night of astronomical
wonder at the Ric and Jean Edelman Planetarium. Our state-of-the-art
facility invites you to gaze at the cosmos, learn about celestial
wonders, and ignite your curiosity. Whether you're a seasoned
stargazer or a first-time explorer, there's something magical waiting
for you.
🌙🌍Buckle up for an interstellar
show adventure- Earth, Moon, and Sun ( 1 hour duration)
This planetarium show explores the relationship between the
Earth, Moon, and Sun with the help of Coyote, an amusing character
adapted from Native American oral traditions who has many
misconceptions about our home planet and its most familiar neighbors.
His confusion about the universe makes viewers think about how the
Earth, Moon, and Sun work together as a system. Native American
stories are used throughout the show to help distinguish between myths
and science.
Learn why the Sun rises and sets and the basics of
fusion and solar energy. Examine the Moon's orbit, craters, phases,
and eclipses. Also, the show explores past and future space travel to
our Moon and beyond.
Additionally participants will take
part in the interactive Roving With Perseverance Workshop ( 30 minutes)
Get up close and personal with the Perseverance rover, NASA's
intrepid explorer on the Red Planet. Learn about its mission,
scientific instruments, and groundbreaking discoveries. On loan from
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California; the
mini-exhibit includes a Perseverance rover table-top model, a wheel
replica, and the "Mars 2020 Mission Kit" with rock and
mineral samples, a sample tube replica, and swatches of spacecraft materials!!
