FIELD TRIPS

The WVU planetarium is a popular destination for field trips! We provide a FREE service for school groups, library groups, clubs, scout troops, and more! During the pandemic, we also learned to provide Virtual Field Trips, and we are happy to continue this option for those who desire, just let us know! 

Browse  Our Shows  page to choose an introduction and featured film for your visit, or we can work with you to make some suggestions to fit your group's particular needs and interests. Our most popular combination is the Night Sky Tonight introduction with a children's film ( Larry Cat in Space Accidental Astronauts Earth, Moon & Sun Earth's Wild Ride Oasis in Space The Secrets of Gravity , or  Two Small Pieces of Glass ). 

To request a field trip please  fill out the form at the bottom of this page

If you want a student science ambassador to come and visit your school or organization, contact the WVU Physics & Astronomy Graduate Student Organization or the  West Virginia Science Public Outreach Team (WV SPOT)
