Frequently Asked Questions

What if we arrive late for a show?

Patrons can be permitted into the planetarium after the show begins with the assistance of a staff member.  Our staff have access to a special flashlight to avoid interfering with the experience of others.  This is due to the nature of planetarium shows and the need to maintain a dark environment.  They should review some of our planetarium rules with you before entering if you missed the beginning of the show.  Doors will open 5 minutes before the show time and close 5 minutes after.  A staff member is required for re-entry if you exit the show early.

Are there age restrictions for planetarium shows?

Children 2 years old and younger are not required to purchase a ticket as long as they are on a parents lap.  Limited to one entry per adult.  A separate seat can be purchased if desired.

Out of courtesy for all guests, patrons of the Planetarium must be able to sit appropriately and quietly for the duration of the show.  We ask parents to step out with any disruptive children as necessary until the child is ready to return.  You are welcome to stand in the alcoves just outside of the dome if standing helps to keep the child calm.  For safety reasons we do not provide booster seats and ask that guests not stand on the seating.

Due to room capacity limits set by the state fire marshal we can not handle large groups with small children 2 and under.

Are there flashing lights within the experience? Possible seizure risks for sensitive individuals?

Yes, the simulators and planetarium often have dramatic changes to lighting or other content which is more likely to trigger seizures due to flashing lights or other causes.  When you arrive you can request for our staff to mitigate some of these effects.  Though it should be noted that some elements are automated and difficult to eliminate completely.

How do I reserve wheelchair seating in the planetarium?

There are 4 wheelchair spots and 4 adjacent seats located in the planetarium.  Please call ahead to reserve one of these seats when completing your ticket purchase.  Our software is unable to track this aspect and so our staff will accommodate your needs over the phone or make you aware if seating isn’t available for a particular show.

Can the planetarium be rented out for a special event?

Yes.
