The University of Toledo Ritter Planetarium will present two programs in May: “The Hot and Energetic Universe” and “The Solar System Show.”
“The Hot and Energetic Universe” is a half-hour documentary exploring high-energy astrophysics, which is the study of the hot and violent universe using X-rays and gamma rays.
Recommended for high school and adult audiences, “The Hot and Energetic Universe” will screen at 8:30 p.m. Fridays through May 30.
“The Solar System Show” is a kid-hosted exploration of the planets and other objects that make up our solar system. It’s recommended for elementary and middle school audiences and will screen at 1 p.m. Saturdays through May 31.
Admission to planetarium shows is $8 for adults and $6 for children, senior citizens and UToledo community members. Children ages 3 and younger are free. Parking is free in Area 1N within 45 minutes of the beginning of planetarium shows.
