STARS: The Powerhouses of the Universe

This immersive planetarium experience takes families on a journey through space to explore the life cycles of stars—from their faint beginnings to their brilliant, explosive endings. The 30-minute show features narration by Mark Hamill and stunning animations created by the National Space Centre in Leicester, with an original score performed by the Nashville Symphony Orchestra. It's a visually captivating introduction to how stars power our universe, perfect for elementary-aged children and curious minds of all ages. The show runs regularly during the Adventure Science Center's operating hours. Closed captions are available upon request—just let staff know when you arrive. The facility offers accessible amenities for all guests; you can find details about accessibility features on their website. Tickets are available for purchase online, and the museum is transitioning to a day-pass ticketing system in July 2026, so check ahead when planning your visit.
