UAA Planetarium: Cosmic Collisions on March 23

Friday, March 23, 6:30-7:30 p.m.
CPISB, Planetarium

Collisions are a universal force of nature, both destructive and creative. They've created many things we take for granted: the glowing Moon, the Sun's warmth and light, our changing seasons, waves washing up on a sandy shore. They've ended the age of the dinosaurs and changed the very map of the cosmos, reforming galaxies and giving birth to new stars and new worlds.

Narrated by Robert Redford and produced by the American Museum of Natural History and NASA, "Cosmic Collisions" provides an unprecedented and extraordinary view of these catastrophic and constructive events that have shaped our world and universes.

"Cosmic Collisions" is one hour in length, featuring a 25-minute show followed by a live tour of the night sky and/or the solar system. Ticket reservations are available online only at http://UAATix.com/. Remaining tickets will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis at the door on the day of the show. The planetarium will open for seating 30 minutes before the start of each show. You must be in the theater 10 minutes before the show starts. Reserved seats will be released after this time to stand-by customers. There is no entry after the show begins.
