SUMMARY:Two Small Pieces of Glass
DESCRIPTION:Two Small Pieces of Glass follows two students as they interact with a female astronomer at a local star party. Along the way students learn how telescopes work\, traces the history of the telescope from Galileo’s modifications to a child’s spyglass — using two small pieces of glass — to the launch of NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and the future of astronomy. It explores the wonder and discovery made by astronomers throughout the last 400 years. The program features a soundtrack recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra and a live tour of the night sky. \nTrailer \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12.

SUMMARY:Earth\, Moon\, & Sun
DESCRIPTION:Earth\, Moon\, & Sun is a fast-paced full dome demonstration of lunar phases\, eclipses\, day and night\, the sun and other puzzling events with the help of a confused coyote. This program beautifully illustrates basic concepts like moon phases and seasons. Based on the trickster of Native American lore\, Coyote is constantly corrected in his misunderstandings of how things work. A live tour of the Maine sky and its beautiful constellations completes this micro-unit of astronomy. \nTrailer \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12.

SUMMARY:Stars
DESCRIPTION:Every star has a story. Some are as old as time\, faint and almost forgotten. Others burn bright and end their lives in powerful explosions. New stars are created every day\, born of vast clouds of gas and dust. Through every phase of their existence\, stars release the energy that lights the Universe. Journey to the furthest reaches of our galaxy and experience both the awesome beauty and destructive power of stars. \nTrailer \nTickets for planetarium programs are $6 for Adults\, $5 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $4 for children under 12.
