Exploring the Worlds of Star Wars

When

2 – 3 p.m., May 4, 2025

Binary suns, icy planets, and many other entities in our own universe mirror those found in the Star Wars universe. In this original live planetarium presentation, Flandrau invites to you take a trip with us to visit real planets that are similar to the worlds visited by Luke Skywalker and friends all while exploring how real science connects to the imaginary worlds of a galaxy far, far away. Join us for this 2025 May the Fourth be With You show in Tucson!

After the star talk, ticket holders will experience a short laser show featuring two songs from the movies. Laser imagery will dance on the ceiling to John William's classic cantina song from A New Hope and his villainous theme from The Empire Strikes Back.

Come in costume for a chance to win a family membership!
