"Messengers of Time and Space" is a stunning visual and educational experience that leads you on a journey through the dynamic Universe during a night of observing at the International Gemini Observatory. The show reflects on Gemini’s unique rapid-response abilities as it joins forces with cutting-edge observatories like NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory and LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory) to bring forth a new era of astronomy.
"Messengers of Time and Space" is 29 minutes long and was made possible through a grant from the NSF called Gemini in the Era of Multi-Messenger Astronomy (GEMMA).
All shows will start with a live presentation about the sky and our neighborhood in space and will continue with the full dome show.
Admission is free and all are welcome.
The Radford University Planetarium is located at 925 East Main Street in Radford, VA.
