DOUBLE-Feature:
Finding Polaris I

Meet Polaris—THE North Star!—who acts as a tour guide, turning a lost Astronomy student’s fact-finding mission into a strange and often humorous adventure. Polaris begins by introducing the Big and Little Bears, then the star Betelgeuse tells the story of Orion, Markab of Perseus, and Vega of the Summer Triangle. This is a 30-minute program.

Finding Polaris II

In Finding Polaris II a student gets a personal guided tour of the night sky by Polaris, this time visiting with some of his friends that are the major stars of the springtime sky: Arcturus, Spica, Regulus, Capella, and Thuban. Kids of all ages will get a kick out of this 30-minute show and learn something along the way!
