SUMMARY:Black Holes\, and Searching for Life on Mars
DESCRIPTION:The attraction of Black Holes is more than just gravitational. These mysterious graveyards of dead stars have fascinated generations. “Black Holes” explores the history\, physics\, and mystery of these reality-bending phenomena. Experience the bending of light\, the skewing of perception\, and the dizzying descent into a black hole. \nTrailer \nFollowing the show\, guest lecturer Dr. Henning Haack will be giving a presentation on the geology of Mars\, and the search for prior life. \nSearching for Life on Mars\nNASAs latest rover Perseverance and its reconnaissance helicopter\, Ingenuity\, have explored an ancient crater lake on Mars for over a year now. It is heading for a large river delta\, at the edge of the crater lake\, where life may have thrived when mars was warmer and wetter. Henning Haack will talk about the rovers discoveries during the past year and the plans for the coming years when the rover arrives at the delta. Visitors will be able to look at actual rocks from Mars from the Maine Mineral and Gem meteorite collection. \n  \n \nHenning Haack received his PhD in Geophysics from the University of Copenhagen\, and did postdoc work at the Planetary Geosciences division at the University of Hawaii and at the Institute of Physics in Odense. He has served as an Associate Research Professor at the Danish Center for Remote Sensing and curator for the Geological Museum at the University of Copenhagen. He has searched for meteorites in numerous locations including the Antarctica\, Cape York\, and the blue ice fields in Greenland. He has received a number of honors including the University of Copenhagen’s Gold Medal\, The United States Congress Antarctic Service Medal\, and has an asteroid named in his honor (Asteroid 7005 –Hennighaack). He currently is an Associate Researcher at the Maine Mineral and Gem Museum in Bethel and teaches at ScienceTalents in Denmark. \n  \n\n  \nTickets for planetarium programs are $7 for Adults\, $6 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $5 for children under 12.

SUMMARY:Phantom of the Universe
DESCRIPTION:From the journey of protons racing through the world’s largest particle collider to up-close views of the Big Bang and emergent universe\, and the nearly mile-deep descent to an underground experiment\, Phantom of the Universe immerses audiences in the search for dark matter. Explore this mysterious matter and how we are using discoveries at the Large Hadron Collider to get closer to discovering the true nature of Dark Matter. View the first hints of its existence through the eyes of Fritz Zwicky\, the scientist who coined the term “dark matter.” Explore the astral choreography witnessed by Vera Rubin in the Andromeda galaxy\, and then plummet deep underground to see the most sensitive dark matter detector on Earth\, housed in a former gold mine.  Speed alongside particles before they collide in visually stunning explosions of light and sound at Large Hadron Collider at CERN\, while learning how scientists around the world are collaborating to track down the constituents of dark matter. Executive Producer Michael Barnett of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory served as an advisor to PBS’s NOVA series Elegant Universe and the feature film Angels & Demons. Featuring narration by Academy-Award winning actress Tilda Swinton\, Phantom of the Universe showcases imagery from CERN’s Media Lab. \n  \n\n  \nTickets for planetarium programs are $7 for Adults\, $6 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $5 for children under 12.
