Fisk-Vanderbilt Astronomy Roadshow Planetarium
Saturday, October 24, 1:00-3:00 PM
In close partnership with Vanderbilt University’s historic
Dyer Observatory, the Physics & Astronomy departments of both Fisk University
and Vanderbilt University are proud to offer a public outreach initiative comprising
a large inflatable indoor planetarium. By projecting a representation of the
night sky onto the dome’s interior, they are able to teach students about the constellations
and various mythologies, the nature of stars, the Sun-Earth-Moon system, the
Solar System planets and their motions, and many other celestial phenomena in a
fun yet informative manner. 
Each session will be the same, but geared towards each grade level group. Limit of 30 children per class.
