Late Night Planetarium

Join us on Thursday 25 July for some late-night shows in the Perpetual Guardian Planetarium. We’ll have on offer:

7.30pm – Capcom Go! The Apollo Story 8.30pm – The Sky Tonight 9:30pm – Amazing Universe.

Capcom GO! is an immersive 3D planetarium show documenting the Apollo programme, and what it took to put the first person on the Moon 50 years ago. Discover the story behind this historic moment, which continues to inspire generations of explorers and dreamers.

The Sky Tonight is a live presentation by one of our Science Communicators, which details what you could see if you were to go stargazing in Dunedin that evening. Learn about stars and constellations and how to find them in the night sky, as well as hearing about some fascinating deep space objects.

Amazing Universe will take you on a journey through the solar system, to the farthest reaches of visible space and beyond.

Shows run for 45 minutes each, and admittance to the planetarium is restricted to ages three years and up. Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult. Tickets are available from the Otago Museum Shop or online.
