Program Description

Event Details

Join us for this amazing astronomy experience by Herbert Trackman Planetarium of the Joliet Junior College which will simulate the upcoming eclipse.  Make sure you're prepared for the eclipse by attending this show projected on the dome of the planetarium. We'll discuss eclipse safety but also have a fun simulation of the eclipse both from Earth and space.  The total program runs about an hour with half of it being a live presentation and the other half being a short movie about the sun on the dome.

This is a field trip style event for all ages with a caretaker required to be present for children and is off site at the planetarium.

The Herbert Trackman Planetarium is located at 1215 Houbolt Road, Joliet, IL. 60431. Parking and entrance are by the F-building South Lot S7 (Enter the campus and turn LEFT, all the way down). Please Park in the back of the lot prior to signs. This is part of Joliet Junior College.
