Take a look through the galaxy with our telescope to view Venus, Jupiter, and Mars or even watch the moon rise.
Children are welcome. Santa Fe will be conducting interactive children's activities related to astronomy and arts and crafts; we'll help them make planets, stars, galaxies, space masks, flying saucers and more. Children are sure to love our Campo del Cielo meteorite interactive activity, as well.
If you stick around long enough, you may even win FREE tickets to a special planetarium showing of Music 360: Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.
