Event Infoeventbrite.com.auAbout
The Sun is the only star that we can study from relatively close range, and learning more about our Sun helps astronomers to understand more about other stars.
The Sun: Our Living Star presents a wealth of information about the Sun in an easily understandable way. It includes spectacular graphics showing how the Sun generates its energy, and that it reveals many of its secrets to astronomers, who observe it in different wavelengths of light.
This exciting program about the Sun was produced by the European Southern Observatory. It made its world debut at the International Planetarium Society Conference in France in July 2018.
Each Planetarium show is followed by a live tour of the current night sky.
The health and wellbeing of our visitors, employees and volunteers is our priority.
While face masks are no longer required, we do encourage mask wearing as extra protection in areas such as the Launceston Planetarium where visitors are unable to physically distance.
Feel free to bring your own mask. If you forget, don't worry, we've got you covered – simply ask our friendly team at the Information Desk.
