Revel in the splendor of the various worlds in the solar system and the ferocity of the scorching Sun. The show then leaves our home to take the audience out to the colorful birthplaces and burial grounds of stars, and still further out, beyond the Milky Way, to the unimaginable immensity of countless galaxies. Relive the discoveries by famous astronomers, the invention of the telescope and today’s giant telescopes that allow us to continue to probe ever deeper into the universe.

The Search for Life in Space Planetarium Show
Journey from the depths of the Pacific Ocean into the far reaches of space on a quest to find something that changes everything…signs of life, somewhere else in the universe. This immersive voyage takes audiences from the surface of Mars and the icy moons of Jupiter to the extreme lava fields of Hawaii and thermal vents deep beneath the sea. In these harsh environments, astrobiologists look for clues to how life takes hold. The Search for Life will make you re-examine such fundamental questions as: “Where did we come from?” “How did we get here?” and “Are we alone?” Narrated by Malcom McDowell.

Spark: The Universe in Us Planetarium Show
“Spark” is about our deep connection not just to Earth, but to stars millions of light years away—and billions of years in the past. Start your journey by soaring over a stunning Sierra Nevada waterfall and then blast off across space and time to discover the celestial origins of the elements we all have in common. Along the way, you’ll enter the core of a giant star just before it implodes, experience the quiet demise of a star like the Sun, and see how colliding stars seed the universe with the building blocks of life.

Mysteries of the Great Lakes Planetarium Show
Dubbed 'inland seas' by early European explorers, the Great Lakes have some of the most spectacular wilderness scenery on Earth, and a fifth of all the planet's fresh water. The waters pass by towering cliffs dotted with early Native American pictographs, caribou and moose grazing on the shores, over giant prehistoric sturgeon lurking among thousands of shipwrecks and past nearly 40 million people who live along the more than 10,000 miles of coastline.
