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\u2019s violent birth? What does its history tell us about our chances of finding other worlds that are truly Earth-like?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ticket Pricing<\/strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>Adults: $5.00<br \/>\nChildren (under age of 12): $3.00<br \/>\nDSU students\/faculty\/staff: FREE (present valid DSU ID\/OKRA KARD)<br \/>\nTickets sold at the door.
