Mr. K.'s Mobile Dome Planetarium

Mr. K.'s Mobile Dome Planetarium Science education that's FUN! In house field trips to your school, library, or YMCA! No BUS or TRAVEL

The Mobile Dome Planetarium is the only traveling planetarium in the seven counties of Western New York accompanied by a Planetarian of the Middle Atlantic Planetarium Society: Paul Krupinski from Ancient Eyes Productions. Now, there's a way for teachers, parents, students, scouts, and youth groups to explore the night sky, as well as learn about astronomy and space science. Learn science and rela

ted topics in a small and intimate setting that encourages thinking and discussion. Experience the excitement of a professional planetarium program with sight and sound. Now, this can happen in your building and you no longer have to plan for the "away from school" field trip. We bring the stars and wonders of the universe directly to YOU!

Look, it's me without a dome!

Interesting indeed.

And the years just fly by -- 33 days to orbit its star.

Don’t be fooled, the Moon may look Full on Friday the 13th, but the Moon isn’t exactly 100% illuminated and exactly opposite the Sun until 12:32 AM Saturday, September 14. Sorry, no Full Moon on Friday the 13th for Moon lovers on the East Coast.

Meeting so many amazing people this summer at libraries across WNY and Northern, PA! Keep looking up after dark!
