COVID Safety Procedures
To operate safely, Hardin Planetarium has taken the below measures, updated 9 August 2021. Most of the work is done by us, but you will need to help some as well.
What you do for us...
- You wear masks at all times inside the planetarium
What we do for you...
- We will remove any guests refusing to wear masks, except for children aged 4 and under
- We provide hand sanitizer at the entrance, and recommend that you use it
- We train all volunteers in safety procedures

Wheelchair Accessibility: A ramp from State St. provides access to the building's main floor. The below lots are only available on weekends or after 4:30 PM.
1) Two spots in a tiny lot behind the building, at the end of a driveway from State St. That lot is lower than the building, so it is an uphill climb.
2) Three spots in the lot between Ogden College Hall and Kelly Thompson Hall.
3) The large parking lots on top of College Heights Blvd. The path from there is down hill.
