Event Details

What are galaxies? We’ll begin by examining our own Milky Way in several different ways, using different types of light. Then discover how we learned that other spiral nebulae are actually galaxies separate from our own. We’ll see to the edge of the known universe to see the oldest galaxies of all.

This program is for participants in grades 5-8. Teens are not required to have an adult present; however, anyone who leaves the planetarium is not permitted to re-enter due to safety concerns.
