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.

Lost at Sea

For centuries, the idea of planets around other stars existed only in the realm of science fiction. But over the last two decades, astronomers have discovered thousands upon thousands of planets in the night sky. How have they found these planets, and what have we seen on them? And what is left to learn? Join us at the McCallion Planetarium as we discuss how we find these planets, how they're different than our own, and what sorts of wild and wonderful planets exist in our universe.

Many of our favourite stories take place outside of our Solar System or even our Galaxy, the Milky Way. We are always curious to know what it would be like to live on another planet, take off at light-speed, or fall into a black hole. But how much of what we see in movies or TV shows is true? During this planetarium show, we will take a look at some common tropes we see in space media and ask ourselves: is this fact or fiction? We will learn about what shows and movies like Star Trek, Star Wars, The Martian, Interstellar, and Doctor Who get right or wrong, and celebrate them along the way!

Myth-Busting Astronomy in Pop Culture

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!
