Planetarium Lates: What’s Up? The Fright Sky!

This October we are drawing back the curtain on some of space’s dark secrets in “What’s Up? The Fright Sky!”

Planetarium Lates: What’s Up? The Fright Sky!

About Planetarium Lates: What’s Up? The Fright Sky!

We will hear some of the stories of those characters who find themselves immortalised in the constellations and the horrors they had to endure to get them there. Then, we will delve into the darkness, exploring all the things we can’t see. Just what is the Universe hiding from us? Join us in the planetarium to find out.
