East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania invites the general public to attend an original sky show, entitled \u201cPhases of the Moon\u201d and two feature shows starting at 7:00 p.m., Friday, September 28. The shows will be held in the McMunn Planetarium in the Warren E. ’55 and Sandra Hoeffner Science and Technology Center. \u201cPhases of the Moon,\u201d and the first feature show, \u201cThe Little Star That Could,\u201d begin at 7:00 p.m., with \u201cPhases of the Moon\u201d and a feature show entitled \u201cOasis in Space\u201d starting at 8:00 p.m.<\/p>\n
The \u201cPhases of the Moon\u201d sky show addresses the mysteries and misconceptions about the appearance of our nearest cosmic neighbor. \u201cThe Little Star That Could,\u201d which appeals to children, follows a personified \u201caverage\u201d star called \u201cSol\u201d in search of planets. Along the journey, the star learns about the lives of other stars and their properties as well as clusters, galaxies and planets. The second feature show, \u201cOasis in Space,” describes mankind’s current knowledge of the universe and solar system, and the search for water and possible life on other planets.<\/p>\n
The program is open to the general public at no cost, but reservations are required due to limited seating. Reservations will be taken online starting at 8:00 a.m., on Monday, September 24, 2012, on a first-come, first-serve basis at www.esu.edu\/planetarium<\/a>.
