When was the last time you saw...

A black hole
The ancient pyramids
An asteroid belt from the inside
A psychedelic rock 'n' roll show
The Texas nighttime sky without any city lights?

It's all here at The Planetarium at UT Arlington.

What's in a Show?

A typical show at The Planetarium will consist first of an introduction to the dome theater itself and the show to be presented.

Then, the recorded show will be played on the dome.

Finally, the presenter will give Texas Stargazing (a tour of the night sky) in which the wonders of tonight's amazing night sky will be graphically illustrated on the dome and discussed.

Be prepared to be amazed by the beauty of the night sky as seen far away from city lights. Your questions are welcome.
