There will be activities for children, such as Astro-Jeopardy, planetarium shows, rocket launching, and sundial making. New this year will be a futuristic model moon base built by members of the Lego Enthusiasts Association of Hawaii, plus a Mars rescue mission game in which children will assemble rescue pods and race them across simulated Martian terrain.
Visitors of all ages are invited to short lectures on topics such as the 2008 eclipse, solar storms, the origin of oxygen and the latest news about planets in distant star systems. And much much more! Check our Open House website for more information.
