Designed for all audiences, this full-length production features 3-D simulations of black holes and the strange physical and visual effects they can create. With the help of science advisors from around the country, audiences will be able to see and feel what it might be like to approach the supermassive black hole at the center of our own Milky Way galaxy, or speculate on the existence of \u201cwormholes,\u201d theoretical portholes in space and time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Bushman Planetarium features a Digistar 4 projection system and a dome that is tilted slightly, rather than directly overhead, making viewing easier. The Dolby 5.1 surround sound system enhances your viewing experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for children, students, military and seniors.
