Sharpe Planetarium

Journey to distant galaxies, explore the solar system and settle back in a comfortable seat in the Sharpe Planetarium as you take a cosmic voyage through the universe.

The Lida Gammill Sharpe Planetarium, a 130-seat theater-in-the-round, uses planetarium technology to project star fields, visual images and patterns on a domed ceiling.  Augmented by a superb sound system, the Planetarium programs are a treat for the eyes and ears.

The Sharpe Planetarium is now open Tuesday through Saturday.

---------------------------------------------------------------

There is going to be galactic-sized new technology in the Sharpe Planetarium and you can help make it happen.

The advent of Full Dome Video is coming to the Mid-South and it will revolutionize the viewer’s planetarium experience. The viewer will be completely immersed in imagery and sound like never before.
