Birth of Planet Earth
April 24 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
$5Join us at the Wiley Planetarium to celebrate Earth Day! We’ll begin the evening with a live tour of our mid-spring sky, take a look at real-time data of our Earth’s weather and geological activity, and end the evening with the stunning planetarium film Birth of Planet Earth.
Birth of Planet Earth tells the tale of our planet’s origins. Scientists now believe that our galaxy is filled with solar systems, including up to a billion planets roughly the size of our own. The film employs advanced, data-driven, cinematic-quality visualizations to explore some of the greatest 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?
