Polaris

Cozy up in your pajamas for a special planetarium screening of this award-winning film at the Sudekum Planetarium. Follow a curious polar bear and penguin as they embark on an astronomical adventure to solve the mystery of the polar night. Their journey takes them from a backyard observatory all the way through space, visiting Earth, Mars, and Saturn to discover what makes each planet unique. The film runs 29 minutes, making it a perfect length for younger viewers. This experience works wonderfully for children ages 4–12 who are interested in space and science. Captions are available for the showing. If your family has accessibility needs, planetarium staff members are happy to discuss options when you arrive. You'll want to check the museum's regular hours since planetarium showtimes vary, and remember to bring those comfortable pajamas to make the evening extra fun.
