"The Sun: Our Living Star" Planetarium Show

The Sun is our nearest star and our planet's powerhouse, the source of the energy that drives our winds, our weather and all life.  The light that warms our skin today has been felt by every person who has ever lived.  The passage of the Sun's fiery disc across the sky - day by day, month by month - was how humanity kept track of time for countless generations.  Although it is a typical dwarf star, the Sun consumes 600 million tons of hydrogen each second and is 500 times as massive as all the planets combined.  Discover the secrets of our star and experience never-before-seen images of its violent surface in this visually striking planetarium show about the most important star in our lives.
