How did life on Earth begin? This tantalizing question forms the basis of the second all-digital planetarium show produced by the Academy for the Morrison Planetarium's 75-foot diameter dome. WINNER of the "Best Fulldome Program" category at the 2011 Jackson Hole Wildlife Film Festival!

Through June 8, 2012, all 10:30 am shows Monday through Friday are reserved for school groups, arranged in advance.

* Please note: The Planetarium is very popular and tickets are handed out on a first come first serve basis due to limited seating. Visit the cart at the planetarium theater to pick up a show pass. In addition, please remember that shows may not be appropriate for kids 6 and under, and that children 3 and under are not permitted.
BONUS PRESENTATION!

On Sundays & Free Wednesdays, catch "Alien Worlds" in Hohfeld Hall, the Planetarium's preshow area. Inspired by our main Planetarium presentation, "Life: A Cosmic Story," this live, 10-minute featurette explores environments within our own solar system that scientists think might provide the most likely places for life to exist beyond Earth. Find out what Mars looks like up close, what it was like to land on Saturn's moon, Titan, and more!

Shows at 10:40, 11:25, 12:10, 12:55, 1:40, 2:25, 3:10, 3:55, & 4:40 in Hohfeld Hall. No passes required. Enter from the Lab Junior side of the Planetarium dome. All ages welcome. Space limited.


Reservations: None. Tickets are handed out on a first-come first-served basis. Visit the kiosk at the planetarium entrance to select your show time.
