Description

Have you ever dreamt of traveling to the end of the universe? Or wondered how far away we are from other galaxies? Find out in the Ralph Mueller Planetarium’s new program Scale of the Universe. A museum educator will lead the way as you fly from Archie the Columbian Mammoth to the observable universe using measurements from feet to light years to figure out how far you’ve gone.
