Holiday Show – Winter Skies & Ice Worlds

December 3, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Join us for our last planetarium show before the Holidays! We’ll take a look at the upcoming winter skies, highlight some Christmas-themed nebulae, commemorate the one year anniversary of the Webb Space Telescope’s launch, and reflect on Apollo 8’s image of the Earth taken on Christmas Eve in 1968. Following the live show, we’ll watch the planetarium film Ice Worlds.

Ice Worlds: The delicate balance between ice, water and the existence of life has been a topic of scientific inquiry for generations. In travels to the Arctic and Antarctic regions of our planet, we’ll examine the ecosystems that exist and thrive there and learn how their survival is connected with our own. Beyond Earth, we’ll see how the existence of ice shapes the landscape and the natural systems on other planets and moons in our Solar System. Winner of five Telly Awards. Narrated by Academy Award nominated actress, Emily Watson. Produced in cooperation with the University of New Hampshire, the Houston Museum of Natural Science, with the support of the National Science Foundation.
