Welcome to GCC's all digital Planetarium!

The GCC digital planetarium is one of the college's most amazing spaces. Every semester, our small team of astronomers welcomes hundreds of college students to our classroom "under the stars," as well as thousands of local elementary and high school students.

See the calendar for dates and time of shows/events.

Please be on time. Latecomers are usually not allowed in because of safety concerns.  The room is quite dark during presentations making tripping a hazard.

Consult the map to find parking. 

Planetarium and PE

Currently all our midday events are free and require no prior registration.

Food, drinks, or other messy items are not allowed in the seating area.  They may be stored on the counters until the presentation is over.

Enjoy the show!
