Journey through the cosmos with stunning visuals and the latest news in astronomy. Follow along with the series to explore the vast possibilities of space. Recommended for ages five and up.

January 17: What's Up With the Sun?
Why have we had so much solar activity this year? Why have you been able to see the auroras right here in Santa Barbara? Answer these questions and more as we discover the Sun’s year of solar maximum.

Space is infinite but planetarium seats are not—reserve spots while they last. Registration link coming soon, allowing you to choose from four 20-minute shows starting at 5:00, 5:30, 6:00, or 6:30 PM. Be prepared for staff to check your membership card and be ready to enter 10 minutes in advance as these shows will begin promptly.
