SIDE NOTE:
In 1963, Tyler Junior College (TJC) opened the first planetarium located in East Texas. Originally known as the Hudnall Planetarium, it was reopened in 2011 after a major expansion and renovation of its facilities and renamed The Center for Earth and Space Science Education.
Home to the first 40’ Spitz nano-seam domed theatre in East Texas, the state-of-the-art Planetarium features an immersive, full-dome video experience. The new theater is equipped with Digitarium Aethos, the latest in digital projection technology. The facility also features interactive displays and exhibits, classroom and outdoor play spaces.
Parking: There is limited free parking available in Parking Lot F-5 (on the corner of E. Lake St & S. Mahon Ave). You need to park in spots labeled ‘Science Center Parking’.
