Revolutionary Astronomers

Revolutionary Astronomers is a new live planetarium show that takes audiences back in time to the American Revolution to discover the crossroads between history and astronomy. Audiences follow the stories of David Rittenhouse, Samuel Williams, and Benjamin Banneker, three astronomers of the day who contributed not only to science, but also the development of the newly forming United States. Through a combination of live narration, immersive audio, and visuals, Revolutionary Astronomers aims to take audiences across the nation, over waters, and, of course, to the stars to discover how three unknown figures in astronomy contributed to a growing nation. 

This show will debut at "Salute to 250 Day" on Saturday, June 27, 2026! 

Listed showtimes are valid from June 27th through June 30th.
