Head over to the Margaret Chase Smith Library to explore the sky with Northern Stars Planetarium! There will be two 30-minute sessions for younger kids (recommended ages 5+) at 10:30 and 11:15, and one 1-hour session for older kids (recommended ages 8+) at 12:00. Registration required.

"The Wonderful Sky": This program takes a look at the seasonal night sky as seen with the unaided eye. Stars, constellations, visible planets, meteors, the Moon, and northern lights are all likely to be discussed.

"Earth—Our Place in the Cosmos": This show was created to meet the standards for grades 3-4. Learning points include: the Earth/Sun connection, constellations, the Moon and its phases, rotation and revolution, and our place in the solar system of eight planets. Students discover that our Earth is a small place in a vast constantly moving universe.
