From the makers of junk food and junk mail…comes…SPACE JUNK! Tens of millions of objects floating in orbit around our planet. How did they get there? Can we clean them up? Do they pose a threat to our astronauts or even here on Earth? Come see what our astronomers and TV’s Matt Paxton have to say about Earth’s history of hoarding objects for decades!! After the show see a free sneak preview of the new IMAX® film Space Junk, then, weather permitting, we will point telescopes into the vastness of space and see things with our own eyes!
