Welcome to the WVU Planetarium
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:
♦ On October 26th, during our children's show, we will be celebrating Halloween a bit early with a special
intro about some spooky-looking deep sky objects before Accidental Astronauts!
♦ On November 15th, we will be partnering with the WVU Robotics Team to put on a special joint event. We will feature a
new intro about Mars and the team will have a table with their robot!
♦ Weather permitting, we will open the rooftop observatory for telescope viewing following the shows.
