Moon Madness – for Kids - SOLD OUT

Why should planets get all the attention? Learn about the massive collision that made our moon, Mars' tiny moons and their tragic fates, the volcanos of Io, the possible life hidden below the ices of Europa, the massive Ganymede, the completely alien oceans and lakes of Titan, the geysers of Enceladus, the death star lookalike Mimas, the two faces of Iapetus, the backward orbit of Triton, and more. We will also discuss how moons are formed, what they can teach us about the planets they orbit, how we explore them, and any other moon-related questions you may have. This is a specially adapted show for kids.

Please note that children under 8 can sometimes be frightened when we zoom into celestial objects. The planetarium is not like a TV screen - it's an immersive environment, and the perspective could be unsettling for younger kids who are not yet able to process the information. We obviously want to create a positive environment for kids' learning, and you know them best and what they can handle. If individuals are disruptive you may be asked to leave, and re-admission is not possible. All attendees, including infants in arms, require a ticket due to fire and safety capacity codes.

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