This Leap Day we will be celebrating Superheroes, their superhuman powers, and the planets they come from. Has your child ever wondered about the science behind Superheroes? Could gamma ray exposure give anyone super strength? Could super powers change if our heroes landed on different planets in our solar system? Is any of this really possible? We will explore these questions and more with kid-friendly science during our first family night of the new year. Be sure to come dressed as your favorite superhero!

Enjoy live demonstrations, a show in the Planetarium Star Theatre, make some fun superhero crafts and take a look at the night sky through our telescope (weather permitting).

This event is recommended for children 7 years and older.
