MSU Moorhead Planetarium presents new programs
The Minnesota State University Moorhead Planetarium presents its winter shows, “One World, One Sky-Big Bird’s Adventure” and “IBEX: Search for the Edge of the Solar System.”
One World, One Sky-Big Bird’s Adventure
Shows Saturdays at 11 a.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. until March 9
One World, One Sky-Big Bird’s Adventure is a brilliant spectacle of light and color as the furry friends watch the stars twinkle over Sesame Street. Children attending the show can interact as they watch, draw constellations and count the time it takes the sun to set. The show aims to nurture a child’s natural sense of wonder about the night sky while forging cross-cultural connections, and bridging kids across nations through a common bond in learning about the sky together.
IBEX: Search for the Edge of the Solar System
Shows Mondays at 7 p.m. until March 10.
The interstellar boundary is the last frontier of the solar system. Join two inquisitive teenagers as they voyage with NASA’s Interstellar Boundary Explorer spacecraft to get an in-depth look at the mission and some of the challenges of space science.
The MSUM Planetarium is located at 11th St. and 8th Ave S. in Moorhead.
