"Season of Light" describes the legends associated with the stars that appear during the Christmas season such as Orion the Hunter, Taurus the Bull, and Leo the Lion. Narrated by Noah Adams of NPR’s “All Things Considered" and appropriate for all ages, the show talks about all things celestial and winter traditional including the Star of Bethlehem, Jolly Old Saint Nick, holiday lights and candles, exploring traditions of gift-giving, and solstice festivals.

This runtime for the show is 35-minutes and the show will include a tour of the nighttime sky using the full-dome projection system.

Admission is free.

Everyone is invited to our 55-seat theater in the Center for the Sciences, on the Main Street floor. We typically have room for everyone interested, although we do have to hold to the 55-visitor limit.

Please arrive approx. 15 minutes prior to showtime.

No food or drinks in the planetarium, please.

The Radford University Planetarium is located at 801 East Main Street, Curie Hall Room 43 in Radford, VA on the campus of Radford University.
