Astronomy

Whether in the IMAX®DOME or on the front lawn, we'll help you discover
"what's up" in the night sky.
Sky watch LiveSky
Presented at 6 p.m. on the third Friday of every month. Note: there will not be a LiveSky November 19, 2010
Tickets: $5; museum members free
Take a guided tour of the current night sky and find out about the latest celestial happenings. You'll also have the opportunity to ask questions and make requests of your astronomer host. Since the sky is always changing and audience questions and requests vary, each LiveSky show is different.

Please note: Once a LiveSky program has begun, the theater is very dark. For safety reasons, we cannot seat latecomers.
