Birth of Planet Earth

Scientists now believe that our galaxy is filled with solar systems, including up to a billion planets roughly the size of our own. Join us in Morrison Planetarium to explore some of the biggest questions in science today: How did Earth become a living planet in the wake of our Solar System’s violent birth? What does its history tell us about our chances of finding other worlds that are truly Earth-like?

Please note: Planetarium shows are included with admission, but capacity is extremely limited to ensure sufficient physical distancing between guests. Reservations are required and are available on a first-come, first-served basis: Please scan the QR code posted in the lobby as soon as you arrive for the greatest selection of available showtimes. For more information, please view the FAQs on our planetarium page here.

Planetarium shows may not be appropriate for children under 7, and we regret that we cannot admit any children under 4.
