Black Hole: First Picture - Dorrance DOME

Details

Following a journey of human perseverance, ingenuity, and imagination, full-dome film Black Hole First Picture encapsulates a historic milestone in science visualization and discovery – witnessing a phenomenon widely believed to be invisible: a black hole. Planetarium audiences around the world are taken on a quest that examines worldwide radio sites that comprise the Event Horizon Telescope (a global network of synchronized radio observatories that work in unison to capture images of black holes), peers into the core of the Messier 87 galaxy, and travels to the heart of the Milky Way to produce the first-ever picture of a black hole. Tickets for the Dorrance DOME start at $14 plus admission. Daily 11:45 AM & 2:45 PM
