This spring, we are pairing our popular monthly sky tours with astronomy topic talks and full dome
planetarium presentations. Each evening will begin with an immersive planetarium presentation about
a different astronomical topic. Next, we will take you on a tour of the current skies, highlighting visible
planets, deep sky objects, and any upcoming special astronomical events. Feel free to ask your
astronomy questions throughout the night! (Ages 10 – Adult)
In his final evening class as Planetarium Director, Mark Percy will recount the history of the Williamsville
Space Lab Planetarium. Come learn about how this marvelous sky simulator came to be and how it
evolved into the immersive learning space that serves over 20,000 students annually. Mark will be
hanging up his laser pointer at the end of June, wrapping up 25 years of controlling the stars.
