About This Event

Discover the chance encounters that have shaped our place in the universe. Narrated by Pedro Pascal, “Encounters in the Milky Way” presents spectacular moments from the past and future of our solar system — including the orbits of stars, comets, interstellar debris and dazzling clouds of gas and dust. For the first time ever, discover the dramatic, ongoing merger between our galaxy and a smaller satellite galaxy, visualized in stunning detail. Created by a team of space scientists, artists and visualization experts, “Encounters in the Milky Way” is based on real data from the European Space Agency’s Gaia mission — one of the coolest space projects ever!  Children ages 0-2 do not need a ticket. Your tickets are attached to your confirmation letter and may be scanned from your phone. Wheelchair accessible tickets for this show can be purchased here. Limited availability per show. Advance tickets recommended. Individuals attending with someone in a wheelchair do not require a wheelchair accessible ticket. Runtime 25 minutes Showtimes: Monday-Friday 11:15am, 12:55pm, 3:15pm. Saturday & Sunday 11:15am
