About this event

    The Little Star That Could is a story about Little Star, an average yellow star in search for planets of his own to protect and warm. Along the way, he meets other stars, learns what makes each star special, and discovers that stars combine to form star clusters and galaxies. Eventually, Little Star finds his planets. Each planet is introduced to the audience with basic information about our Solar System.

    Guests will also be exposed to the current early summer night skies and focus on the area of the sky that is in heart of the summer scorpion constellation. Learning how to use a simple partial-sky star map is also included.
