SUMMARY:The Wall - Pink Floyd
DESCRIPTION:Pink Floyd’s progressive 8th album is put to stunning visuals that will send you to the moon. The album remained on Billboard charts for an amazing 741 weeks\, longer than any other record in history. Experience “The Wall” like never before.

SUMMARY:Polaris: Mystery of the Polar Night
DESCRIPTION:A traveling penguin from the South Pole and a funny polar bear from the North pole meet on arctic sea ice.  They become friends observing the night sky together and wondering why night is so long at the poles of the Earth. This mystery leads them on a scientific adventure by building an improvised spaceship to travel around the Earth to learn about seasons\, visit Mars and Saturn to learn about ice in the solar system and how planets have similarities and differences which make them unique. \nTickets for planetarium programs are $7 for Adults\, $6 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $5 for children under 12. Click here to view our calendar. \nTickets may be purchased online\, by phone at (207) 581-1341\, or at our ticket box office prior to the show.

SUMMARY:Science Lecture Series: Dr. Seth Campbell
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Seth Campbell\nEyes on the Arctic: Global Connections to the Icy North\n\n\n\nThursday\, November 11 at 7:00 pm \n\n\n\n  \n\nWhether you know it or not\, the Arctic impacts nearly every living creature across the planet. This vast web of icy mountains\, glaciers\, tundra\, oceans\, and ecosystems each play a vital role in global Earth system processes. Dr. Seth Campbell will tell this tale through his eyes as a past participant on over two dozen expeditions into the icy North. This includes such stories as climbing to the summit of the highest peak in North America and as Director of the nationally renowned Juneau Icefield Research Program. \n  \n  \n  \nDr. Seth Campbell is an Assistant Professor of glaciology at the University of Maine Climate Change Institute and School of Earth & Climate Sciences.  He is Director of the longest operating Polar field research and training program in North America\, the Juneau Icefield Research Program (JIRP).  Seth also holds an intermittent research geophysicist role with the U.S. Army Cold Regions Research & Engineering Laboratory where he works on occasional Polar projects of national interest.  Seth has participated in over 60 research expeditions across the planet focused on quantifying Polar environmental change and relating those changes to human impacts.  At UMaine and JIRP\, Seth focuses on building Earth and planetary science research collaborations while also inspiring the next generation of Polar scientists\, engineers\, educators\, and others who are interested in the natural world. \n  \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nThe Science Lecture Series at Versant Power Astronomy Center will take place on the second Thursday of each month and is a partnership project with the Maine Science Festival and will feature research from a variety of science disciplines from around our state and use the digital planetarium to visualize these discoveries in a new dramatic and immersive way. \nTickets for planetarium programs are $7 for Adults\, $6 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $5 for children under 12. Click here to view our calendar. \nTickets are available online at http://astro.umaine.edu\, by calling 581-1341\, or at the box office.

SUMMARY:Secrets of the Universe
DESCRIPTION:Travel with scientist Manuel Calderon De La Barca Sanchez as he journeys to the largest machine ever built\, the greatest scientific instrument ever created\, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). \nThere\, he joins a global team working to uncover another amazing breakthrough in this new world of technology-driven physics. We get an inside look at the machine and come to understand just what it means to do science\, teaming up for the flag of humanity to solve the universe’s greatest mysteries. \nWe don’t stop with the Large Hadron Collider\, though. The machines we’ve built are as diverse as the secrets we’re looking for\, and the people looking for them. We travel to the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Observatory (LIGO)\, the amazing project that recently confirmed Einstein’s century old prediction of the existence of gravitational waves. \nHumanity is at the edge of unprecedented scientific discovery\, and we can all be a part of it! \nWatch the trailer here! \n  \n\nTickets for planetarium programs are $7 for Adults\, $6 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $5 for children under 12. Click here to view our calendar. \nTickets may be purchased online\, by phone at (207) 581-1341\, or at our ticket box office prior to the show.
