Come where day magically becomes night. Simply choose one of the shows and in just one hour you'll take an extraordinary voyage into astronomy. Find a place in the 92-seat theater and a universe of computerized three-dimensional images surrounds you as you fly through the stars. Children of all ages are invited to join us on these stunning voyages of discovery!

The Planetarium, located in Concord, New Hampshire, is a living memorial that combines Christa McAuliffe's dream of traveling through space with her dedication to teaching, and her belief that everyone should have the opportunity to "reach for the stars". Our shows blend computer generated effects, video, slides and music into an awe-inspiring experience. Education and entertainment mix in our 40 foot domed theater to delight audiences of all ages. Bring yourself, your family, your friends, or a group from your school or business to discover the wonders of the cosmos and our place in it.

The first Friday of every month (weather permitting) the New Hampshire Astronomical Society sets up telescopes on the Planetarium lawn. Join us from dusk to about 10pm for a great look at constellations. See the rings of Saturn, the Orion Nebula, the moons of Jupiter. All for FREE!
