We liked looking at the mechanical equipment at the planetarium! |
Students loved the comfy seats and the illuminated dome. But their favorite part was when we learned about meteor showers and watched the asteroids zoom by. Exciting!
Students had excellent questions, ranging from questions about constellation locations, supernovas, and the discovery of the universe. (Wow!) Luckily, our tour guide has a dual major in physics AND philosophy--definitely a plus when talking to fourth graders.
