TWO SMALL PIECES OF GLASS: The Amazing Telescope
A fantastic full-dome show about the history and science of telescopes. Who invented the telescope? How have astronomers employed these astounding instruments to unravel the Universe's deepest secrets?
"Two Small Pieces of Glass" follows two young people who attend a star party and learn how telescopes work while they observe many wondrous objects within the cosmos.
Join us for this full dome celebration of the telescope!
