Starlab Planetarium K-12

The Starlab mobile planetarium allows the Challenger Learning Center to bring the night sky to schools or special events! The planetarium can be set-up and ready in as little as thirty minutes.  In addition to brining this traveling exhibit out to different sites, it can also be added as part of a Challenger Mission.  While inside the Starlab, participants view the night sky as if they are outside in an open field with no city lights distracting the view. Our program includes instruction about the day and night sky, celestial navigation, constellations, moon phases, size and temperature of stars, nebulas, planets, and current celestial events. Our lessons are aligned to the Ohio Content Standards, the Revised Science Science and Social Studies Standards and the Common Core. The Starlab experience opens up a new understanding of the universe!  All those who participate are also give a star chart to help guide them on their own star gazing journey with family and friends.
