Cell Phones and Photography
Cell phone use and photography are encouraged in the planetarium lobby (especially if you tag us on Instagram!), but please keep your phone in your bag/pocket during presentations in the dome theater. The bright light from your phone screen and camera flash will wash out the sky and distract other guests.
Video recording is strictly prohibited during planetarium shows.
