Every age of astronomy has expanded our horizons, and modern astronomy surveys 14 billion years of history and 90 billion light years of observable universe. By pushing our understanding past our Solar System and beyond our Galaxy, we have learned that the largest scales that the universe are dominated by dark matter, which holds galaxies together, and dark energy, which is pushing our universe apart. Join us in the planetarium for a trip from Earth to the farthest, and oldest reaches of the universe. We’ll highlight the discovery of dark matter, and dark energy and the search to unravel these biggest mysteries of the universe.

All ticket sales are final.  Please use our Directions page for information on parking and getting to the planetarium.
