The first showing is around 6:30 pm; each lasting about 1 hour. The planetarium is clean, and a well presented eduacational activity fun for all ages. There are students who will answer questions following the show, and then take audience members of those who are interested in looking thru a high powered telescope outdoors. The presentations are changed on a monthly rotating schedule. Approxmately $10-$12 for a family of four, depending on ages, there is a student and a senior discount.

    Stargazer's paradise
    A great planetarium located on the campus of ASU. Lots of theatre style seating. Video programs are always informative. The viewing of the night sky is very, very realistic.
