We are not able to provide planetarium shows at this time due to emergency repairs of our projectors. Please check out other local planetariums in the meantime. 

As the outreach arm of the Department of Astronomy, we are not a full-fledged or staffed science center. We do our best to meet all requests. We offer public shows based on staffing availability. The Planetarium at COSI is open for public programs.
