Tessmann Planetarium introductory astronomy programming stresses the K-12 State of California Science Content Standards. Each of our one-hour shows take students and adults on a trip through the Solar System and beyond. The principles associated with the scientific method, gravity and the development of our nearest star, the Sun, are stressed through highly interactive discussions coupled with engaging question and answer sessions. For more information about our programming, click here.
A special effort is being made to raise funds to provide an endowment for the Planetarium and the new, interactive Space Education Center on the Santa Ana College Campus. Your help is needed. Go to our Friends of the Planetarium page for more information, or please call Peter Bostic at 564-6091.
