The planetarium offers an opportunity to explore our Universe through several different shows. Come see the stars, planets, and recognize constellations as they appear above you, just as if you were gazing at the night sky.
The planetarium is pretty great! I’ve always loved watching shows there and only loved it more when I became a planetarium operator! 10/10 would recommend going to the planetarium! They have a lot of great and interesting shows about space and stuff!

$2 ain't a bad price to go watch stars blow up and whatnot for half an hour on a big dome screen. Sound and audio quality are impressively good too.
