“Lives of the Stars”
Tue 2 June - Sun 19 July
A highly interactive experience where you will point to a star in the sky, we we will all learn its name, it's distance, and more. Through this we will explore the life cycles of stars: how they form, what they do, and how they end.
Beginning Moday 20 July, Hardin Planetarium will be closed for one week for hardware upgrades.
“Hubble Space Telescope’s 30th Anniversary”
Tues 28 July - Sun 23 Aug
Learn the life cycles of stars using only images from the Hubble Space Telescope. Unlike any other show here, there is no narration, but employs a specially composed soundtrack inspired by HST’s legacy. Questions about HST, its images, and astronomy will be answered at the conclusion of each show.
