Event Details
Radio astronomer Dr. Ellie Arroway (Jodie Foster) searches for extraterrestrial intelligence, receives a signal from space and is chosen for first contact. This film will be displayed in 16:9 aspect ratio on the planetarium dome in high definition. Popcorn and snacks will be available at the concession stand. Please arrive at least 15 minutes before the event start time. Advanced purchase of tickets is recommended by calling the Museum at 386-255-0285.
Following the film, from 8:00-9:00 p.m. we will move outside (weather permitting) for a telescope viewing of the Crab Nebula pulsar, a rare celestial object that strongly emits both radio waves and visible light.
Admission: $8.00 for members, $10.00 for future members. Outdoor telescope viewing is free to the public. #MoviesatMOAS
