Welcome Wildcat Families! Flandrau Science Center & Planetarium invites you to experience how we teach introductory Astronomy to students first-hand! Using the digital full-dome planetarium projector in the EOS Foundation Theater, Dr. Thomas A. Fleming of Steward Observatory will present a lesson from his ASTR 170B1 course, Exploring Our Universe, designed to illustrate how we teach today’s students. Topics will include black holes and the search for planets that orbit other stars.
Science exhibit admission is included with your ticket! Explore Flandrau's science exhibits after your show, including "Universe of Science," highlighting U of A researchers, and "Undersea Discovery" featuring several aquariums with live coral reef and ocean marine life.
