Planetarium Presentations: Black Holes

Discover the Intrigue and Power

What are black holes? How are they made? Lurking throughout the universe like cosmic dragons, unseen voids with energy of a million suns, they can devour entire stars. Once in their grasp, nothing, not even light, can escape. Few mysteries in the universe have the power and awe of a black hole. Only now we are on the verge of understanding their true nature. View 3D simulations of black holes and the awesome physical and visual effects they create. Approach the massive black hole at the center of the Milky Way and speculate on the existence of worm holes, theoretical portholes in space and time.
