SUMMARY:- POSTPONED - Arboretum Planetarium Workshop: Moons of the Solar System
DESCRIPTION:– This event has been postponed. Please visit the Arboretum’s website for more information –  \nJoin guest instructor Trevor Chandler inside his planetarium for this amazing program (families welcome and encouraged). \nThere are currently eight planets in our solar system. Orbiting many of these planets are a wide variety of moons\, each with its own unique story to tell. This program will explore some of the differences between planets and moons and will introduce some of the major moons of our solar system. We will review definitions of star\, planet\, moon and orbit\, as well as the associated sizes\, distances\, and scales. \nWe’ll look into the motions of the Earth\, sun and our moon and how they cause the Earth’s moon cycles through phases. The first 30 minutes of the program will be spent outside of the dome working with physical models of the Earth\, sun and moon to help understand what we see in the sky. \nSEATING ARRANGEMENTS: The planetarium dome is 5 m in diameter. It is a small but intimate space and therefore necessary to be seated on the floor during the presentation. A small foam cushion is provided. For those with mobility issues\, the dome is wheelchair accessible and chair seating can be made available for up to three guests if requested in advance. \nFebruary 2020 will feature Venus and Taurus. \nGuest Instructor Trevor Chandler \nRegistration: \nFee: $19 per person PLUS a $10 fee per transaction (you can register multiple people per transaction and multiple planetarium programs per transaction) \nRegistration Deadline: Mar. 10\, 2020 \nNote: If we don’t have enough registrations by Mar. 10 the course may be cancelled. Maximum 25 people per session.If the course is full when you attempt to register\, please sign up on the Wait List as we may add an additional time slot . \nPlanetarium workshop video.

SUMMARY:- POSTPONED - Arboretum Planetarium Workshop: All About Mars
DESCRIPTION:– This event has been postponed. Please visit the Arboretum’s website for more information –  \nJoin guest instructor Trevor Chandler inside his planetarium for this amazing program (families welcome and encouraged). \nThe red planet Mars will be well positioned for observation in fall 2020. In advance of this opportunity\, this show provides an opportunity to explore the some of the basic scientific facts that have been discovered about one of our closest space neighbors. We’ll begin by reviewing what is meant by the terms “planet” and “orbit.” \nFrom there\, we’ll go on to learn how to recognize Mars (and other planets) in the night sky before reviewing some of Mars’ physical characteristics. Mars appears to have once been a lot like Earth\, with oceans and a dense atmosphere\, but then it all went horribly wrong. Much of what we have learned about Mars has come from robotic missions\, which seem to give rise to as many questions as are answered. \nSEATING ARRANGEMENTS: The planetarium dome is 5 m in diameter. It is a small but intimate space and therefore necessary to be seated on the floor during the presentation. A small foam cushion is provided. For those with mobility issues\, the dome is wheelchair accessible and chair seating can be made available for up to three guests if requested in advance. \nGuest Instructor Trevor Chandler \nRegistration: \nFee: $15 per person PLUS a $10 fee per transaction (you can register multiple people per transaction and multiple planetarium programs per transaction). All registrants under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult. \nRegistration Deadline: Mar. 10\, 2020 \nNote: If we don’t have enough registrations by Mar. 10 the course may be cancelled. Maximum 25 people per session.If the course is full when you attempt to register\, please sign up on the Wait List as we may add an additional time slot. \nPlanetarium workshop video.
