About Us

The Ric and Jean Edelman Planetarium at Rowan University is a resource for public outreach and astronomy education. It features state-of-the-art planetarium and laser projection systems, a 0.4m research observatory, amateur telescopes, and a suite of hands-on activity toolkits in Glassboro, NJ, 20 miles southeast of Philadelphia. For more than 20 years, the planetarium has been an educational staple in the community, offering planetarium shows, star parties, school field trips, and special events for the public.
