"From Earth to the Universe"

The night sky, both beautiful and mysterious, has been the subject of campfire stories, ancient myths and awe for as long as there have been people. A desire to comprehend the Universe may well be humanity’s oldest shared intellectual experience. Yet only recently have we truly begun to grasp our place in the vast cosmos. To learn about this journey of celestial discovery, from the theories of the ancient Greek astronomers to today’s grandest telescopes, we invite you to experience From Earth to the Universe.

WVU Planetarium shows are always free of charge to the public, but we gladly accept donations. If donating interests you, please do so here: https://give.wvu.edu/campaign/wvu-planetarium-project/c428289. Donations support outreach events and the maintenance of our publically available 14” diameter Schmidt-Cassegrian telescope. They also help us achieve our goal of licensing a new and exciting show every year!
