About

The Gustafson Planetarium is a fully-equipped 48-seat theatre where audiences can learn about the wonders of the night sky. Our operators will present a show that best suits each topic. The cost per show is $175.00 for a 45-minute to one-hour presentation. All shows will point out familiar constellations and current objects visible in the sky (planet locations, comets, meteor showers and other celestial events).
