UofT Planetarium: New Horizons of Exploration

Showtimes: 7:00pm, 8:00pm, and 9:00pm

For thousands of years, humans have studied the heavens from the confines of the Earth.  In the last century, however, we have begun sending both people and machines to other worlds. Where have we gone, and what discoveries have we made? This planetarium show will delve into the history of space exploration, from the first tentative steps made during the Space Race to the first-ever flyby of Pluto by the New Horizons spacecraft.

The show will be approximately 50 minutes long. All shows are presented live and in person by University of Toronto astronomers. Plenty of time is allocated for questions from the audience.
