Planetarium Program: The Life of Trees

Trees are essential for all life on Earth. They are among the largest and longest living organisms here. Join two quirky bugs, a ladybug called Dolores and a firefly called Mike as they explore the fascinating world of trees, traveling through lovely leafy landscapes. To grow tall, the tree has become a miracle of engineering and a complex chemical factory. By means of photosynthesis the leaves combine the water and salts with carbon dioxide from the air to produce the nutrients which feed the tree. Trees even remove carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, from our air. Bring the whole family for this fun and educational frolic through the forest!   Program length is one hour and is recommended for ages 6-10, and general audiences, Please arrive at least 5 minutes before show time, because late arrivals may not be seated for safety reasons in our darkened planetarium.
