Public Shows

During the academic year, public shows are held the evening of the first and third Friday of every month at 7:00 p.m. and are provided free of charge.

Planetarium showing at TU

Each semester, we offer four shows with different focuses — from exploring Mars to the unique stories of stars. Every show, while individual, will leave you with a greater understanding of the Universe that surrounds us.

Interstellar Experiences

Each show at the planetarium has a specific theme associated with it. While the themes often differ, the following are examples of shows in the past similar to what we try to offer each semester.
