If it's clear tonight and you can get to a place with an open western horizon, look for this gathering after sunset.

Fall 2012 Schedule

The Fall 2012 schedule of public shows is out! You can see it on the calendar on the web site or download a PDF here. The first show (Sky this Month for September) is Sunday, Sept. 2, at 4:00 PM.

There are two changes from recent years you may want to be aware of.  Due to staff teaching schedules, our Monday noon show is moving to the first Tuesday of the month at noon. We are also introducing a weeknight show! It will be the first Tuesday of the month at 7:00 PM. However, since the Astronomy 101 labs use the planetarium at the beginning of September, the first of these will be in October.

We hope to see you at the planetarium this fall!
