Our Traveling Astronomy Programs bring the excitement of the Planetarium to your classroom with visually stunning presentations and hands-on demonstrations, presented by an astronomy educator on-site at your school. Explore the Sun’s properties and the energy it gives us. Discover the water cycle through a kinesthetic activity and learn about clouds, lightning, and rainbows. Then, study the Moon’s phases and journey to the Moon to conduct an experiment about gravity.
