Explore the dynamics of stellar interiors while encountering unusual stars at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point Allen F. Blocher Planetarium.

"Stellar Extremes" will be shown Sundays at 2 p.m. on February 4, 11, 18, 25, March 4 and 11. Planetarium doors open one-half hour before scheduled programs.

During the program, find out what it takes to solve stellar mysteries from light years away as well as the challenges astronomers face while studying stellar extremes.

Each Monday at 8 p.m., the Night Sky program looks in detail at objects in the current night sky. If skies are clear, there is an optional observatory visit for sky viewing through the telescope. A forecast of viewing conditions and a statement about whether the observatory is open is available by calling (715) 346-2208.

Both the Sunday and Monday shows are open to the public free of charge. Designed for a general audience, planetarium programs appeal to all age groups. Seating is first-come, first-served for up to 70 people. Groups of 15 or more may schedule a special showing of any planetarium program by calling (715) 346-2208. There is a cost of $15 for these presentations.

Laser light shows will be returning the evenings of February 28 - March 3, and March 7-10.

The planetarium is located on the second floor of the UWSP Science Building at the corner of Reserve Street and Fourth Avenue. Parking is available in Lot X near the building entrance and is free in all university lots after 7 p.m.
