Explore the night sky, fly through the solar system, explore the universe and learn about new astronomical discoveries at the Pierce College Science Dome!

Children’s Planetary Show: Saturdays, 1 p.m. and 2:45 p.m.

Motions and Patterns: A Children’s Planetarium Show!

How do the Sun, Moon and stars move across the sky?  Why does it get dark so early in the winter yet the Sun is still up at bedtime in the summer? How have different cultures around the world used the stars to tell stories?  In this live and interactive planetarium presentation you will discover motions and patterns in the sky, make and take your own constellation and travel around the world to see how others see the sky.
