Wonders of the Fall Sky
There are three shows at this evening's show, with start times at 6:00PM, 7:15PM and 8:30PM.
The Mt. Hood Community College (MHCC) Planetarium opens the year with more great public shows, a move to a new night and coming soon, a state-of-the-art projection system.
In “Wonders of the Fall Sky,” planetarium director Pat Hanrahan will show visitors how to locate the planets, nebulae, galaxies, star clusters and a current star nova in the night sky.
Each show is presented under a realistic representation of the night sky, featuring the latest galactic, stellar and planetary images.
Visitors are encouraged to ask questions during each program. Children are welcome to attend.
