The SMSU Planetarium
has
a new full-dome LASER
projection
system!
...and a new lineup of full-dome laser shows.
Legends of the Night Sky takes a
light-hearted
and imaginative look at the myths and stories associated with the
Constellations.
This show is 20 minutes of full dome laser fun and at the same time
teaches
kids and adults the Greek stories about the stars. Legends of
the Night Sky is narrated by two wonderful characters, Aesop the
owl
and Socrates the mouse. They provide the night time "classroom"
atmosphere
with comedy and wit. Based on constellations viewed in the fall sky,
Perseus
and Andromeda is a story filled with humorous and exciting characters
including
Pegasus, the winged horse; Cetus, the sea monster; Perseus, the mighty
warrior; and the fearsome monster Medusa. This entertaining tale is
designed
to engage the audience and stimulate interest in learning about the
night
sky.

Orion

<>Accompanied
by narrators Aesop the owl and Socrates the mouse, we follow Orion's
adventures as he grows to manhood, battles mythical beasts, foils the
plot of an evil king and wins the heart of Artemis, the beautiful
moon-goddess. By the end of the story, we learn how the constellation
Orion was placed in the sky, forever turning overhead throughout the
seasons.>

Paradigm Shifts
A brief exploration of the Universe
through
Space and Time
This beautifully done show covers how
humanity's
thinking has shifted as revolutions in astronomy reshaped man's
perceptions.
Broken into three parts: MYTHS & MODELS takes a brief look at
how the ancient Egyptians believed the Sun god Ra was carried across
the sky by boat and the night goddess Nut arched her starry body over
the Earth. The ancient Greeks
named some of the constellations and came up with a heavenly order that
consisted of crystalline spheres centered on the immoveable
Earth.
THE NEW UNIVERSE presents how Copernicus challenges 1,000 years of
thought
by placing the Sun at the center and the Earth as just one of several
planets
circling the Sun. Later humanity comes to know that the Sun is
just
one star in a local group of stars in orbit within the Milkyway galaxy,
and the Milkyway is a member of a local group of galaxies and the local
group of galaxies is part of a cluster and clusters form into super
clusters.
TIME & BEYOND briefly highlights that our universe is always
changing,
stars evolve and some explode and even form into black holes. |
