ASHEBORO – Step into a space, journey through the solar
system and meet Earth’s closest celestial neighbors on Thursday, November 15,
at the Asheboro Public Library.
All ages are invited to free sky shows at 10 a.m., 2 p.m.
and 4 p.m. in a StarLab Portable Planetarium set up in the central part of the
library. The planetarium holds 6-8 people; multiple presentations of the
10-minute show will take place at each scheduled time if necessary to
accommodate all attendees.
Abbreviated shows also will take place between scheduled
showings.
The StarLab, an
11-foot-high by 16-foot-diameter inflatable dome, is on loan from the
State Library of North Carolina, which has made four of the portable
planetariums available around the state. A laptop/projector system displays the
sky show and guides viewers through the program.
The StarLab will leave Asheboro for its next library
location in a few weeks.
The library is located at 201 Worth Street. For further
information, call 336-318-6803.
