To kick off this Memorial Day weekend, come check out a show at the Horwitz-DeRemer Planetarium!
Since it's the last weekend in May, this will be the last opportunity for awhile to see these shows. You can't go wrong for $5.00 per person, so join us today!


A couple of weeks back, depending where you live, you may have seen a peek at the auroras! If you did, and got a picture to share, please share below!
Whether you saw them or not, it's ok! Because tomorrow, you can join us for a new planetarium show, "Aurora's Lights of Wonder."

Full moon tonight! May is most notable for being the turning point in the year where (finally!) temperatures rise & a vast variety of flowers come into full bloom, letting the world break out into a riot of color. As such, May’s full moon is known as the Full Flower Moon.


Leo the Lion is a favorite spring constellation of many. Follow the link to read a little more about the star Regulus, also known as Leo the Lion's Heart .

Did you know we now offer shows in open captioning? Did you know that we offer Spanish captioning too? We have over 30 shows with English open captioning and over 12 shows that have English & Spanish open captioning. Please request if this will be helpful for you & your group!


This week is the last FULL week of May!
Our Wednesday show is great! Also, this is the last Saturday of the month, so if you've been meaning to visit us for those excellent shows, please do this week.
