The bus-sized, $2 billion Cassini spacecraft has been in orbit around Saturn since July 2004. Its army of instruments has provided us with breathtaking views and a new understanding of the ringed giant and its unique entourage of satellites. We will discuss and show images of the enigmatic plumes of Enceladus, lakes, dunes, and rivers of Titan, the sponge-like Hyperion, zillions of rings, and more.
The shows start promptly at 7 and 8 pm.
Tickets are $2 and will be on sale at the door from 6:30 to 7 PM and again from 7:50 to 8 PM.
There is no food or drink allowed in the planetarium.
Because it gets very dark in the planetarium,
the shows may not be appropriate for some young children.
