Description

The feature presentation, Earth, Moon & Sun, explores the relationship between these three objects with the help of Coyote, an amusing character adapted from Native American oral traditions who has many misconceptions about our home planet and its most familiar neighbors.

His confusion about the universe makes viewers think about how the Earth, Moon and Sun work together as a system. Native American stories are used throughout the show to help distinguish between myths and science. (Excerpts about Earth, Moon & Sun from Fulldome Database.

This program will also include a live, unscripted presentation of the Spring Sky by our very own Planetarium Program Provider, Steve Davies. Program participants will be introduced to some of the many out of this world features of the night sky during this time of year.
