Planetarium manager Rick Greenawald says, “If you can’t physically escape southern Idaho for spring break, then come over to the planetarium and experience a virtual escape. You can escape to the south Pacific, Mars, other planets, the stars, or escape reality in one of the rock shows!”

In accordance with current Idaho Stage 3 re-opening guidelines, planetarium seating is limited to 50 guests per show and social distancing is practiced in the theater. The College of Southern Idaho requires all guests to wear facial coverings.
