As a service to the community, Santa Monica College presents two highly popular astronomy shows on Friday evenings in the SMC John Drescher Planetarium, the first planetarium on the West Coast to feature the sophisticated Digistar II computer-driven optical projection system.
The Night Sky Show at 7 p.m. presents the wonders of the ever-changing night sky in an interactive 50-minute show updated weekly with the latest news in space exploration and astronomy. The Feature Show at 8 p.m. concentrates on a specific topic such as the quest for life beyond Earth, black holes, or time travel, and brings guest experts to the SMC campus each month as speakers.
Please visit the Planetarium’s webpage, call the Planetarium, or send e-mail for show dates and topics, ticket prices, or other information, or to arrange a special group presentation.
SPECIAL NOTE: Planetarium shows and lectures sell out quickly. Advance tickets may be purchased at the SMC Events Office on campus or by calling (310) 434-3000 and using a major credit card.
