Explore the Equinox: A live planetarium show

Join us for an evening at the new Montgomery College Planetarium! Together we will explore the September equinox, its astronomical cause, its effects on our seasons, and its role in calendars and cultural traditions around the world.

You’ll leave with a star chart and the ability to find celestial objects on your own. Astronomy faculty will be on hand to answer your questions about the universe.🌙 🌟

The planetarium is a state-of-the-art facility which offers an immersive experience under a tilted 30-foot dome. It features stars, nebulae, galaxies, layered Earth simulation software, and 360-degree virtual reality video and sound.
