Black Hole First Picture (Gr. 5 - adult) 

Black Hole First Picture is a fulldome planetarium film featuring the human attempt to create the very first picture of a black hole with the Event Horizon Telescope. The Event Horizon Telescope consists of a network of 8 Radio telescopes at six remote locations in the world ranging from Europe, North and South America, Hawaii to Antarctica. For years, the Event Horizon Telescope has been staring into the hearts of the Milky Way and the galaxy Messier 87, trying to obtain a picture of the shadow of Sagittarius A*, our galaxy's central supermassive black hole, and the black hole M87*.

From Earth to the Universe (Gr. 5 - adult) (Also available in Spanish)

The night sky, both beautiful and mysterious, has been the subject of campfire stories, ancient myths, and awe for as long as there have been people. A desire to comprehend the universe may well be humanity’s oldest shared intellectual experience. Yet only recently have we truly begun to grasp our place in the vast cosmos. To learn about this journey of celestial discovery, from the theories of the ancient Greek astronomers to today’s grandest telescopes, we invite you to experience From the Earth to the Universe. 

We Are Astronomers (Gr. 5 - adult)

Do you know what an astronomer does? Today’s astronomer is not the lone observer of past centuries. We Are Astronomers reveals the global collaboration, technology, and dedication required to answer the unresolved questions of the universe. We Are Astronomers, narrated by David Tennant, is an exciting new 360° fulldome digital planetarium show produced by NSC Creative, with input from UK astronomers.

Black Holes: The Other Side of Infinity (Gr. 6 - adult) 

There’s a place from which nothing escapes, not even light, where time and space come to an end. At this point, inside this fantastic riddle, black holes exert their sway over the cosmos and our imaginations. Zip through other-worldly wormholes, experience the Milky Way galaxy's creation, and witness a star's violent death and the subsequent birth of a black hole. Mathematical equations, cutting-edge science, and Einstein’s theories fill in gaps along the way, providing the most complete picture yet of this mysterious phenomenon. Can you feel the pull?

Exploding Universe (Gr. 6 - adult) 

Out of the devastating events in the cosmos comes new creation. Explosive phenomena are responsible for how we see the universe today, from supernovas to supervolcanoes. Even the most elementary particles have endured as the universe has transformed our structure. This show follows a single proton as it takes us through some of the universe’s most violent moments, as it participates in nature’s extraordinary events of rebirth and renewal.

Out There (Gr. 7 - adult)

For thousands of years, humanity thought that the Earth was the center of the universe. Thanks to our curiosity, imagination, and urge to explore, we now know that planets like our Earth are nothing special in the cosmos. The Sun is just one ordinary star among hundreds of billions in our galaxy, the Milky Way. With the world’s most powerful telescopes, we can explore more and more of the universe. What we have found so far has surpassed even the wildest expectations of science fiction authors and scientists. Most stars have planets - it turns out they are more common than we thought. A vast diversity of different worlds is out there, just waiting to be discovered.

Phantom of the Universe (Gr. 8 - adult) (Also available in Spanish)
