SUMMARY:Time
DESCRIPTION:On a cosmic scale\, time ceases to be a single\, universal measure. TIME is an immersive journey through the nature of time – from daily rhythms of nature to its role in the structure of the Universe. It follows humanity’s attempts to measure time and explores modern physics\, where relativity\, entropy\, and spacetime challenge our intuitive understanding of the present. In the end\, the film turns to human perception\, inviting viewers to reflect on how we choose to spend our time.\n\n\nTickets for planetarium programs are $9 for Adults\, $8 for UMaine Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $7 for children under 12. Click here to view our calendar. \nTickets may be purchased online\, by phone at 207.581.1341\, or at our ticket box office prior to the show.

SUMMARY:MoonBase: The Next Step
DESCRIPTION:From the moment mankind first set foot on the Moon in 1969 we have dreamed of making a base there. In the next 10 years humans will return to the Moon with the Artemis missions and develop a sustained\, strategic presence near the lunar South Pole. The Moon will become our first ‘staging post’ from which Mars and the rest of the solar system becomes tantalizingly closer.

SUMMARY:Chemistry of Life: The Invisible Inside
DESCRIPTION:Sometimes it’s the smallest things that matter the most. Join us on a journey into a seemingly invisible world – the world of molecules and nanoparticles. What does the cell structure of a leaf look like?

SUMMARY:Pink Floyd: Dark Side of the Moon
DESCRIPTION:Pink Floyd’s iconic album The Dark Side Of The Moon\, originally released in March 1973\, turned 50 in 2023\, and what more fitting a place to celebrate it and experience it than in a Planetarium\, through the music set to visuals? With the help of modern technology\, the idea of a show combining breath-taking views of the solar system and beyond\, played out to 42 minutes of The Dark Side Of The Moon in surround sound\, has been embraced by the band. NSC Creative have led the visual production efforts\, working closely with Pink Floyd’s long time creative collaborator Aubrey Powell from Hipgnosis. \nEach song has a different theme; some futuristically looking forward and some a retro acknowledgment to Pink Floyd’s visual history\, all relating to a time and space experience\, embracing up to the minute technology that only a Planetarium can offer. A truly immersive and all-encompassing surround sound and visual treat that will transcend reality and take you way beyond the realms of 2D experience. \nTickets are $11 for general admission. \nMusic programs may contain explicit lyrics\, and are intended for adult audiences. All music programs may contain bright flashing lights and fast-moving images\, which have been known to trigger seizures with those with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised. \nTickets may be purchased online\, by phone at 207.581.1341\, or at our ticket box office prior to the show.
