The Minnesota Planetarium Society
We
are a group of executives, astronomers, educators, and everyday
citizens that formed a 501(c)3 non-profit organization to help build
and operate a new planetarium and space discovery center.
Our goal is to inspire, inform, and educate about our planet and
universe. Through one of the oldest passions of humanity, we encourage
scientific thought, technological advancement, and exploration.
Experience our Portable Planetarium
The
ExploraDome, a portable mini-planetarium, brings the whole universe
into the classroom. Outreach teachers travel throughout the region to
provide immersive learning sessions. Program and supporting curriculum
are tailored to your group’s age and interest. Students and teachers
rave about this thrilling experience. Schedule your trip to the edge of
our known universe in the ExploraDome today.
