FREE virtual presentations over Zoom!
Head over to our
Showtimes tab to see our virtual show schedule. If you have any questions

For more than 30 years, the planetarium at West Virginia University has given Morgantown
and the surrounding communities a
glimpse
into worlds beyond our own. Sitting atop White Hall, the planetarium has served
thousands of people each year, including hundreds of WVU students.
Upcoming Events:
♦ Join us this Friday at 6:30pm for our final advanced show of the year! We are hosting
another WVU graduate student, Greg Walsh, to chat about his research. Come learn
about Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and how astronomers are using AGN to study galaxy
evolutions! You can register for this show by heading over to our
Showtimes tab or by clicking

♦ Our Fall schedule will consist of a weekly show on Friday at 6:30pm.
We will alternate between "family friendly" content and
"intermediate to advanced" content weekly. Please make sure
to check our description of each show for our suggested age.
