Interactive Quest: Moon Adventure
With the planetarium movie Capcom Go! The Apollo Story, discover the achievements of the Apollo program and what it took to send humans to the moon. Investigate the future of moon exploration by playing a collaborative, S.T.E.M.-based game. Assume the role of astronauts living on the moon, researching, and performing experiments. Then, when a moonquake causes significant damage to your life support systems, work as a team to solve a series of challenges to survive.
Movie & Making: Investigating Light
With the planetarium movie Seeing, follow a photon's creation and journey across the galaxy and into a young stargazer's eye to reveal the wonder of sight. The photon's journey includes full-dome imagery featuring humanity, landscapes, skyscapes, wildlife and space imagery. Narrated by Neil deGrasse Tyson, PhD, and based on the PBS documentary SIGHT. After the movie, create your own colorful work of art using various color mixing techniques.
