Winter evenings are a great time for looking up into the night sky, as it gets dark early and the cool air helps improve visibility of objects in the sky. But what are we looking at? Do any astronomical events occur during the winter months? Join us in the Planetarium as we explore what’s up in the night sky at this time of year from our perspective in Hamilton. We’ll learn about objects we can see with the naked eye – the moon, some constellations, and a six-planet alignment! Then we’ll look deeper into space and learn about objects that are above us but can only be seen using a telescope – like a nebula where stars are forming and other galaxies millions of light years away!
All ticket sales are final. Please use our Directions page for information on parking and getting to the planetarium.
