Planetarium sights in Concord

  1. Christa McAuliffe Planetarium

    This planetarium honors the New Hampshire schoolteacher chosen to be America’s first teacher-astronaut. McAuliffe and her fellow astronauts died in the tragic explosion of the Challenger spacecraft on January 28, 1986. Hour-long shows examine topics such as space travel to Mars and the power of the sun. The popular ‘Tonight’s Sky’ takes visitors on a tour of the constellations and planets visible that month.
