SIDE NOTE:
The VSU Planetarium serves as a valuable teaching tool and as a facility for an extensive public outreach program. Astronomy majors give planetarium shows for thousands of visiting school children and members of nonprofit civic organizations. The planetarium is open to the public on Thursdays, followed by observatory open house, if weather permits.
The planetarium is equipped with a Digitarium Kappa digital projector, the first of its kind in the world. With this facility they can reproduce the night sky as seen from anywhere on Earth or from the surface of any object in the solar system, and at any time in history, past or future.
Seating is available on a “first come, first served” basis and is limited to 47 per show. When you arrive, pick up a FREE TICKET (it is your place-holder!). Tickets are distributed starting at 6 pm and are limited to 7 tickets per party. Before the show, your ticket will be called. If you are not there by show-time, your seat(s) will be given away.
