Featured Planetarium  

Starlight On....

We highlight one planetarium per season that is either exemplary, unique, updated, or has implemented new programming, automation, outreach programs, or is shining brightly in the MAPS region and is affiliated with our organization.  Let us see what we can do to shine some light (starlight) on your facility.  We will  promote all planetarium facilities regardless of size.  All welcome to apply.  Concrete foundations not necessary!

We are always looking for submissions!   Please consider your facility!
