Black Holes Revealed
40 minutes / For older children and adults
In a black hole, gravity triumphs over all other forces, bringing space and time to an end. Black holes are almost unbelievable, but multiple clues now tell us they are real. To find out about these bizarre objects, we’ll fly to the center of the Milky Way, out to a dying star, and back to the early universe.
Take a comfortable seat under our Planetarium dome for a simulated journey near a black hole. Projected on the Star Theater dome, this show is programmed with our best current knowledge of black holes.
Cost:
- Adults: $10
- Seniors & College Students: $9
- Children (3–18): $9
