Mayo Planetarium's "Journey to the Center of the Milky Way!"


Adult Enrichment / Nature -
2025 Adult Winter/Spring Catalog

Embark on a Journey to the Center of the Milky Way and travel faster than light, from the driest place on Earth, the Atacama Desert in Chile, right to the center of our own galaxy, where a black hole is consuming anything that strays into its path. We’ll look at the anatomy of a black hole, and then we’ll discuss what it would be like to get pulled into one. We’ll also see real images of black holes and the center of the Milky Way! Suggested ages 8 and up. Please enter through door #6 at Mayo High School.
